Conservation values
The property holds unique and varied biodiversity, and has potential for further regeneration and restoration efforts (which have already been started by the previous owner). This covenant supports approximately 10 ha of very high-quality Sandstone Ridge Shrubland dominated by Green Mallee. The understory shrub layer is extremely biodiverse in the higher quality vegetation components.
This covenant is also part of a bushland fragment surrounded by a largely cleared landscape, therefore providing important conservation value in an otherwise largely unprotected area. Threatened fauna records within 1 km of the property include Brown Treecreeper and Royal Spoonbill. Threatened flora records within 1 km of the property include Velvet Daisy Bush, Club-hair New Holland Daisy, Blue Mallee, Buloke, and Deane’s Wattle.
