Arbor Week

his week we celebrate, enjoy and care for trees. (Something we should do all year, not just this week). At Hilton this year we are celebrating Arbor week by planting trees around the Wildlife centre and at the Umgeni river picnic sites. Form 1 & 2 boys have been especially keen to get involved as it counts for points towards their Estate requirement for the year.
 


A rare Red Stinkwood tree at Rolling stones. These trees belong in true forest, which tells you that rolling stones must be a special place indeed.
One also finds forest birds there.


A Rock fig clasps a crag on the estate. Home to many birds, these trees are happiest growing on harsh rocky places.
