The overall objective in applying the philosophy is to rehabilitate what is currently ecologically barren sugar cane fields into an integrated natural habitat for locally indigenous flora and fauna, simultaneously creating a lush residential environment for owners of property at Zululami Estate. This philosophy celebrates a holistic lifestyle with an appreciation of nature and all that North Coast living has to offer. The Zululami Estate Landscape Code details a methodology by which the overall philosophy will be achieved.! ! ! 3.
