Vascular Flora Assessment

of

Indobali Residential development Rynfield, Benoni

Compiled by: Ms. Vanessa Marais and the Galago Team comprising: Mrs. P. Lemmer (Cert. Sci. Nat: B.Sc.) 1. Area Description

The site lies in the quarter degree grid square 2628AB (Benoni). Mucina & Rutherford (2006) classified the area as Soweto Highveld Grassland, a gently to moderately undulating landscape on the Highveld plateau supporting short to medium high, dense, tufted grassland dominated almost entirely by Themeda triandra, and accompanied by a variety of other grasses such as Elionurus muticus, Eragrosyis racemosa, Heteropogon contortus and Tristachya leucothrix. It is in places undisturbed, with scattered small wetlands, narrow stream alluvia and pans. Occasional ridges or rocky outcrops interrupt the continuous grassland cover. This vegetation unit comprises shale, sandstone or mudstone, or the intrusive Karoo Suite dolerites which feature prominently. The soil is deep and red on the flat plains.

It has summer rainfall and cool-temperate climate with high extremes between maximum summer and minimum winter temperatures, frequent frosts and large thermic diurnal differences, especially in autumn and spring.

This vegetation unit is considered endangered. Its conservation target is 24%. Only few patches are conserved in statutory reserves and a few private nature reserves. Almost 50% of the unit is already transformed by cultivation, urbanization, mining and road infrastructure and some areas have been flooded by dams.

2. Buffer Area

The buffer around Bullfrog pan is invaded by Pennisetum clandestinum (Kikuyu grass), which might spread into the natural vegetation around the pan. The Kikuyu grass should be eradicated by a registered pest control operator using Glyphosate herbicide (Trade name “Round up” or “Ridder”). Do not dump garden refuse in the buffer around Bullfrog pan.

3. Indobali Gardens

The landscaping theme is Bali with the use of indigenous and deciduous trees & and must conform to the Record of Decision (ROD) specifications. The approved Indobali Plantlist, as supplied below, must be used when landscaping the gardens. A ratio of 85% indigenous and 15% exotic is the allowed criteria. The use of hedgerows is recommended and the planting of trees and is encouraged where possible. Trees planted in the road reserve may not be removed and must be replaced where damaged.

Indigenous species to be used in the Indobali gardens

Tables 3 to 8 contain lists of the indigenous species, most of them natural to the Gauteng area, but some from further east in Mpumalanga and North in Limpopo Province, that should be used in the Indobali gardens. The nurseries where the plants might be obtained are given in columns 2 to 9 of the applicable tables, with the names and contact details after the last table. The plants are listed according to their growth forms, but the horticulturalist should refer to the various field guides and garden publications to establish their moisture and light requirements (see References).
