The Entrance to Rosewood
Two large Bunya Pines flank the gates at the entrance to Rosewood and then the road weaves through a stand of remnant rainforest before you arrive at the property...Nature had started to reclaim the property and catsclaw weed has been growing rampant and is now in the the rainforest canopy
One of the first gardening tasks has been to remove the cat's claw creeper (Macfadyena unguis-cati). It is an aggressive climber which was once used as an ornamental in older-style Queensland gardens....Melissa Cooper who is a park ranger has been invaluable in her advice about slowly eradicating this creeper..and allowing the remnant forest to breathe again.
