Cabinet Timber Plantations
With the increasing number of lifestyle and large acreage private properties being built along the Eastern Seaboard we are now growing, on behalf of a few clients, cabinet timber plants in 15 litre bags. The advantages this offers our clients over traditional tube stock includes:
- A larger root mass to enable longer survival rates in dry or low rain periods - especially if planted with water crystals
- A specimen that is at least 1500mm tall that will survive kangaroo and wallaby grazing
- The selection of the straightest and strongest stock to ensure high survival rates
- Fully tax deductible if planted in accordance with current 'plantation timber' regulations. (we can provide consulting services in this area for a fee)
- Either cutting grown stock from selected host plants or seed grown stock from specimens in your location
Suitable species for cabinet timber plantations include the following:
- Acacia melanoxylon – Blackwood
- Agathis robusta - Qld. Kauri Pine
- Alphitonia excelsa - Red Ash
- Araucaria cunninghamiana - Hoop Pine
- Castanospermum australe - Black Bean, Moreton Bay Chestnut
- Ceratopetalum apetalum - Coachwood
- Dysoxylum fraserianum – Rosewood
- Elaeocarpus grandis - Blue Quandong
- Flindersia australis - Crows Ash
- Flindersia brayleyana - Queensland Maple
- Flindersia schottiana - Cudgerie, Silver Ash
- Grevillea robusta - Silky Oak

- Pararchidendron pruinosum-Snowwood
- Podocarpus elatus -Plum Pine
- Polyscias elegans -Celerywood
- Synoum glandulosum -Scentless Rosewood

All our 15 litre cabinet trees are initially placed in a dedicated zone within the nursery that provides wind protection and some sun protection. Once the trees are reasonably developed they are moved onto our rows to be grown on..
