White Beech update
The project aimed at replenshing numbers of White Beech trees on Beechmont plateau has encountered a delay. Rains have stimulated vegetative growth instead of flowers from mature trees, interrupting plans for seed collection this year. However, it's hoped that seeds will be available for propagation next summer. For more information on the project, contact
Beechmont District Landcare Association Inc.
White Beech returns to Beech Mountain
White Beech (Gmelina leichhardtii) will be appearing in greater numbers on the Beechmont plateau in future. It's hoped that seedlings raised in Beaudesert Shire Council's nursery from seed collected by Beechmont Landcare will be available to Beechmont residents by late 2009. The once-plentiful beech trees, from which Beechmont (formally Beech Mountain) gets its name, have been greatly diminished in number by past logging.

Guide to Natives of Beaudesert
Beaudesert Shire Council has produced a new booklet to help residents identify existing vegetation and plan new plantings on their properties. "Your Guide to the Common Plants of Beaudesert Shire" The free guide is available from the Customer Service Centres in Jimboomba, Beaudesert and Tamborine Mountain.
