Farewell to the Seedlings

Today it was time to farewell this year's TreeProject seedlings. First a last check for weeds and pests, which revealed this little fellow munching on a Woolly Teatree, (Leptospermum lanigerum). 

Then it was time to load everything into the car. I wondered back in January how we would transport fourteen full boxes, but I had forgotten this handy piece of equipment:
Seven boxes in the car, and seven in the trailer.

They didn't have to go far; just a few streets away. The Landcare group they are for will collect them from there, so it looks like we may not get the opportunity to be involved in planting these ones out.

Goodbye, trees!
