Facilitation of event **Coordinator:** @Elle [] Distribution of plants [] Directing new arrivals [] Finding additional sticks to use as stakes [] Taking photos [] Ensuring everyone knows what to do [] Ensuring everyone knows to find tools, gloves, PPE in the Lower Shed [] Calling lunchtime, AGM time, et cetera [] Factor in clean-up time on Sunday [] Put all tools away when done ## Species List Plants purchased for the planting: - ... @Emily will complete this list :) **Trees** - Mischocarpus pyriformis~ yellow pear fruit - Cryptocarya microneura~ murrogun - Aphananthe philippinensis~ rough leaf elm/ axe handle wood - Elaeocarpus grandis~ blue quandong~ 1 - Ficus rubignosa~ port jackson fig - Lisea reticulata~ bolly gum~ 4 - Planchonella eerwah~ shiny leaf condoo/wild apple/black plum - Acacia aulacocarpa~ golden flowered salwood~ 1 - Linospadix monostachya~ walking stick palm~ 10 - Neolitsea dealbata~ white bolly gum~ 4 - Diploglottis australis~ native tamarind - Planchonella australis~ black apple/wild plum - Achronychia oblongfolia~ white aspen~ 10 - Hoop pine~ 15 - Macaranga tanarius~ parasol leaf tree~ 2 - nurrogun tree~ - bush xmas tree~ - black tea tree~ 1 - lilly pilly~ 6 **Shrubs** - Tasmannia insipida~ native pepper - Glycosmis trifoliata~ orange berry, pink lime bush - Abrophyllum ornanas~ native hydrangea~ 2 - Cordyline stricta~ narrow leaf palm lilly~ 1 - vanilla lilly~ 2 - Synostemon albiflorus~ snowbush~ 5 - Psychotria loniceroides~ hairy psychotria~ 11 - Mackinlaya macrosciadea~ blue forest umbrella tree~ 10 - Solanum aviculare~ kangaroo apple~ 10 - Pittosporum revolutum~ brisbane laurel~ 6 - Pittosporum multiflorum~ orange thorn - Cryptocarya laevigata~ glossy laurel~ 3 - Orthosiphon aristatus~ cat whisker~ 2 **Vines** - Melodorum leichhardtii~ zig zag vine~ 10 - Dioscoea transversa~ native yam~ 39 - richmond bird wing butterfly vine~ 10 - grassy narrow leaf yam~ 11 **Herbs, ground cover** - Themeda triandra~ kangaroo grass~ 1 - Pseuderanthemum variable~ love flower~ 9 - Viola betonicifolia~ arrow leaf mountain violet~ 2 - slender flax sedge~ 2 - mentha australis~ native mint~ 1 Landowner supplied: - Macadamia seedlings × 5 ## Takeaways from planting bee event - It's very important to have very legible labels on plants, and taking more time purchasing them. We should bring white-out pens to Kumbartcho and we should label plants with full scientific name and nominal height in metres - We need to be more organised **before creating an event page** because there was too much organisational stress in the lead-up to the event, again - Commitments in the lead-up to the event need to be explicit and clear, communication and organisation is important - Next time our planting instructions absolutely need to mention **not to separate the pot and the plant** so we can retain identification of the species we planted - Be very clear about what the target areas are - We need more wheelbarrows - Better road access will greatly increase efficiency - Focus on the new target area first - Focus on single areas being completely planted up first, then move on to the next area
