Summary

The Tamarix trees planted along the road in 1972 to stop the salt coming through from the next paddock thrived for a start, then suffered too much waterlogging and salt. Treatment started in 1976 with tree growth recovering. Now in 1987 with a full system of grade banks in, the trees are now suffering from "too dry" conditions!
