Notice Information

Notice Title

Benmore Botanic Garden Avenue Phase 3

Notice Description

The Giant Redwood Avenue is over 150 years old and is an iconic feature of the Benmore landscape. It has recently undergone a programme of one meter squared centred Geo Injection. This has been done to reduction of soil compaction and stimulation of root growth through the improvement of soil structure and aeration. at one-meter centres. The grass area up the centre of the Giant Redwood Avenue now requires a gravel raft and rootzone application followed by grass seeding. The purpose of this is to enable free drainage, but also create a suitable grass area up the centre section of the avenue, in order visitors can walk on the grass areas without causing compaction problems. The grass area which requires the work to be carried out on is estimated to be 255 linear meters by 4.5 meters wide, giving an area of 1,148 square meters.
