BAYSWATER council is finally showing commitment to greening its city, says councillor Chris Cornish.
At the annual autumn festival last weekend the council handed out 3000 native plants.

“There was a dozen choices, from up to two-metre high trees to ground cover,” Cr Cornish told the Voice. “There was a big focus on plants and trees. It was great!’
The council also updated its street tree request form, which allows two native trees planted on a verge at no cost, set up a native forest with 25 species, and had an ideas tree where residents posted thoughts and ideas about vegetation.
The council says it will give away 6000 native plants to residents over winter.
