National Tree Day Planting- Pine Point, SA

Description

Aims of the project: The Muloowurtie Conservation Reserve has been a project area since 1995, and was established to protect the last few remaining plants of the rare Acacia rhetinocarpa (Neat Wattle) which was classed as endangered on the Yorke Peninsula.
