What matters on a Mount Colah property?
Mount Colah’s ridgeline location beside Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park creates steep streets, bush-facing gardens and extensive native canopy.
Family homes, battle-axe blocks and sloping properties may involve rock, long carries and limited room for large equipment near the tree.
Eucalypts, angophoras, turpentines and sandstone bushland species dominate the wider setting, with palms and garden hedges around developed homes.
On a Mount Colah property, the species name alone does not decide whether a tree should be removed or pruned. Josh looks at the individual tree, the outcome you need and the constraints of the Mount Colah site before explaining the practical options.
