Yarra’s Edge trees

Yarra’s Edge has its eagerly-awaited replacement trees.

Some 32 weeping figs have been planted in tubs in front of towers three, four and five.

According to Cr Kevin Louey, the trees will not grow above five metres because they are being constrained by the tubs.

“I am advised the response to our proposal was predominantly supportive. It is great to see that the community in Yarra’s Edge are very eager to have the trees put in as soon as possible,” Cr Louey said.
