Healthy riparian vegetation is critically important for healthy waterways, filtering water, binding soil, providing shade, food and habitat for native species and connecting habitat corridors. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The key to successful riparian restoration lies in thoughtful species selection, influenced by factors such as local climate, soil type, and desired outcomes.

The plants chosen exist locally and are known to adapt well to the conditions. We planted different plants in three key zones, moving from the toe (edge of the riverbank) to the middle bank and upper bank:\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3>The \u2018Toe\u2019 Zone:<\/h3>\n<p>This is the sloping edge of the bank, prone to flooding.\u00a0 Low-growing, multi-trunked plants, sedges and rushes with matted roots to bind the toe. Best species for erosion control and can withstand inundation and fast-flowing water.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Species Planted:<\/strong> Grey Mangrove, Swamp Oak, Spiny Mat Rush, River Lilley and two species of Lomandra\u2019s.<\/p>\n<h3>Middle bank zone<\/h3>\n<p>The topmost face of the bank, higher ground, but may partially flood every couple of years. Use plant species that can tolerate having damp feet. Medium-sized plants with good root systems and large canopies that shade the stream.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Species Planted:<\/strong> Creek Lilly Pilly, Blue Flax Lily, Sandpaper Fig, Cheese Tree<\/p>\n<h3>Upper bank zone<\/h3>\n<p>The flat or mostly level section. It may partially flood every couple of years. Plant species that prefer dry conditions. Trees with deep root systems.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Species Planted:<\/strong> Hoop Pine, Forest Red Gum, Small-leaved Fig. \u00a0<\/p>\n<div class=\"row\"  id=\"row-718458452\">\n\n\t<div id=\"col-1745864250\" class=\"col medium-4 small-12 large-4\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\n  <div class=\"banner has-hover\" id=\"banner-524841808\">\n          <div class=\"banner-inner fill\">\n        <div class=\"banner-bg fill\" >\n            <div class=\"bg fill bg-fill \"><\/div>\n                                    \n                    <\/div>\n\t\t\n        <div class=\"banner-layers container\">\n            <div class=\"fill banner-link\"><\/div>            \n        <\/div>\n      <\/div>\n\n            \n<style>\n#banner-524841808 {\n  padding-top: 99.99%;\n}\n#banner-524841808 .bg.bg-loaded {\n  background-image: url(https:\/\/pcfml.org.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/reviving-northern-nsws-riparian-vegetation03-801x1200.jpg);\n}\n<\/style>\n  <\/div>\n\n\n\t<div id=\"gap-1863182022\" class=\"gap-element clearfix\" style=\"display:block;
