To further investigate the establishment
of a commercial Old Man Saltbush plantation it is advisable
to arrange a personal consultation and nursery tour
at Inland Botanics. This nursery is the source of the
‘de Kock’ variety of Old Man Saltbush seedlings.
Our facility is located in thriving
Armidale, New South Wales and we invite our customers
to come and inspect our business. Spend some time with
us, get the feel for our nursery and decide if an Old
Man Saltbush plantation is suitable for a situation
you may have in mind.
If a consultation occurs during the
growing season, examine the seedlings and allow us to
independently explain the process of growing Old Man
Saltbush from seed right through to the seedling dispatch.
This explanation will give a clear picture of Old Man
Saltbush and an understanding of seedling needs at planting
time.
We believe it is good practice to
build sound communication and relationships with customers.
Our specialised personnel are keen to talk and assess
each client’s project design and help out with
suggested labour saving techniques for planting and
growing Old Man Saltbush.
Our nursery has been built with the
very latest technology and engages environmentally sound
strategies to ensure our impact on the local ecology
is minimal. Our philosophy is to be as professional
as possible in our daily activities but at the same
time remembering that our local environment sustains
all of us now and into the future.
To get the most from a personal consultation
concerning Old Man Saltbush we recommend bringing some
of the following items:
• Typical soil sample of the
proposed site for a pH test.
• Aerial photograph (if available)
• Sketch of property indicating watering points,
problem areas and water access for planting the seedlings.
Please feel free to arrange an appointment
at the nursery for a time that is suitable. We are willing
to help plan a tailored project for your property so
that an Old Man Saltbush plantation may become a satisfactory
and beneficial move for your business.
