Planting New Zealand native plants straight into grass? Establishing native NZ bush on a paddock? Seems impossible…right?

Well, with this project we hope to prove the opposite!

The plan is to grow a very high density of native trees, shrubs and grasses indigenous to Aotearoa New Zealand. Thereby allowing this tiny paddock to rewild and regenerate into NZ native bush!

The majority of the plants (±4000) have been planted in the winter of 2023. Additionally we’ve been planting more NZ native plants as time progresses.

High density planting of natives for maximum impact and quick results. Plant-and-forget style. No spraying, no watering, no weeding. Very, very low-maintenance!

Some New Zealand native plants that have been planted in this project:
Harakeke - New Zealand Flax - Phormium tenax
Horoeka - Lancewood - Pseudopanax crassifolius
Karamū - Coprosma Robusta
Kāpuka - Broadleaf - Griselinia littoralis
Mānuka - Leptospermum scoparium
Tī kōuka - Cabbage Tree - Cordyline australis

Elements of Resilience is based in Aotearoa New Zealand (Te Tauihu; Top of the South Island).

We focus on growing food, permaculture principles, food forests, nursery work (New Zealand natives, edible and medicinal plants) and DIY projects. All with a strong emphasis on New Zealand-specific circumstances.

Oh, and don’t forget: sharing all the mistakes and fails we make whilst working towards a wee bit more resilience in our lives.
