2015 Page 3 Introduction Part 1: Introduction 1.1 This Waipa District Development and Subdivision Manual (the Manual), is part of a new integrated approach to development and subdivision within the Waipa District (the District). 1.2 The Manual is part of a suite of documents that will assist to deliver the future of residential, industrial, commercial, and rural developments and subdivisions that implement directions in the Waipa 2050 project. The Manual, together with the Waipa District Plan (the District Plan), seeks to retain the features that make the District desirable and introduces measures that will assist the District to accommodate additional growth in residential, industrial and commercial activity. 1.3 These new elements include the staging of new growth areas that are coordinated with appropriate provision of infrastructure, the requirement for a low impact design approach to infrastructure, the provision for areas of compact housing within town centres, and the requirement for an enhanced level of amenity through higher levels of urban design, particularly in the commercial centres of the District. 1.4 The basis of this Manual is the Hamilton City Council Development Manual (Hamilton Manual). Any future changes to the Hamilton Manual will be evaluated by Waipa District Council (Council) and changes made to ensure consistency between documents. Waipa District Development and Subdivision Manual 2015 Page 5 General Information Part 2: General Information 2.1 Introduction 2.1.1 This section outlines the background to the Manual, the contents of the Manual and in particular, the role of the Development Engineering department within the Integrated Development process. 2.1.2 It is intended that the Manual: 2.1.2.1 Create an infrastructure standard for development and subdivision for all, be it the Council building infrastructure or the developer building the infrastructure that is to be vested to Council. 2.1.2.2 Capture any changes in the service delivery strategies over time and record these as the new minimum standards for infrastructure. 2.1.2.3 Implement the desired infrastructure outcomes of the District Plan. 2.1.2.4 Provide the technical direction for the provision of low impact green engineering solutions. 2.1.3 The minimum standard can be achieved in a variety of ways and variations from those specified in the Manual can be assessed through the land use or subdivision consenting process. 2.2 Background to the Development and Subdivision Manual 2.2.1 The diagram below shows the vast number of inputs into the Manual. Waipa District Development and Subdivision Manual 2015 Page 7 General Information Figure 1: Development and Subdivision Manual inputs 2.2.2 The diagram captures the range of inputs into the Manual that include: 2.2.2.1 District Plan initiatives that require a range of outcomes, including managing the location of growth and development in the District’s

  • RESEARCH Patterns of Woody Plant Epiphytism on Tree Ferns in New
    BrockNew Zealand & Burns: Journal Woody of epiphytes Ecology (2021)of tree 45(1):ferns 3433 © 2021 New Zealand Ecological Society. 1 RESEARCH Patterns of woody plant epiphytism on tree ferns in New Zealand James M. R. Brock*1 and Bruce R. Burns1 1School of Biological Sciences, The University of Auckland, Private Bag 92019, Auckland, New Zealand *Author for correspondence (Email: [email protected]) Published online: 13 January 2021 Abstract: Tree fern trunks provide establishment surfaces and habitat for a range of plant taxa including many understorey shrubs and canopy trees. The importance of these habitats for augmenting forest biodiversity and woody plant regeneration processes has been the subject of conjecture but has not been robustly assessed. We undertook a latitudinal study of the woody epiphytes and hemiepiphytes of two species of tree ferns (Cyathea smithii, Dicksonia squarrosa) at seven sites throughout New Zealand to determine (1) compositional variation with survey area, host identity, and tree fern size, and (2) the frequency of woody epiphyte and hemiepiphyte occurrence, in particular that of mature individuals. We recorded 3441 individuals of 61 species of woody epiphyte and hemiepiphyte on 700 tree ferns across the seven survey areas. All were facultative or accidental, with many species only ever recorded as seedlings. Epiphyte composition varied latitudinally in response to regional species pools; only two species occurred as woody epiphytes at every survey area: Coprosma grandifolia and Schefflera digitata. Five woody epiphyte species exhibited an apparent host preference to one of the two tree fern species surveyed, and trunk diameter and height were strong predictors of woody epiphyte and hemiepiphyte richness and diversity.

Most of the 600 species (in seven families and 13 genera) are arbo- rescent, but considerable morphological variability exists, spanning the giant scaly tree ferns (Cyatheaceae), the low, erect plants (Plagiogy- riaceae), and the diminutive endemics of the Guayana Highlands (Hymenophyllopsidaceae). In this study, we investigate phylogenetic relationships within tree ferns based on analyses of four protein-coding, plastid loci (atpA, atpB, rbcL, and rps4). Our results reveal four well-supported clades, with genera of Dicksoniaceae (sensu Kubitzki, 1990) interspersed among them: (A) (Loxomataceae, (Culcita, Pla- giogyriaceae)), (B) (Calochlaena, (Dicksonia, Lophosoriaceae)), (C) Cibotium, and (D) Cyatheaceae, with Hymenophyllopsidaceae nested within. How these four groups are related to one other, to Thyrsopteris, or to Metaxyaceae is weakly supported. Our results show that Dicksoniaceae and Cyatheaceae, as currently recognised, are not monophyletic and new circumscriptions for these families are needed. © 2006 Elsevier Inc.

  • New Zealand Plants in Australian Gardens Stuart Read
    New Zealand Plants in Australian Gardens Stuart Read Abstract: (11.6.2013): Raised in a large New Zealand garden full of native trees, plant lover Stuart Read was perhaps hard-wired to notice kiwi plants in Australian gardens. Over time he's pieced together a pattern of waves of fashion in their planting and popularity, reflecting scientific and horticultural expansionism, commercial and familial networks and connections across the Tasman. Stuart will examine a range of NZ plants found in old and younger Australian gardens, try to tease out some of the means by which they got here and why they remain popular. No cabbage, This constellation of asterisks Slaps and rustles Its tough tatters In the brisk breeze; Whispers of times past And ancient histories (Barbara Mitcalfe’s poem, ‘Ti Kouka’ (cabbage tree) catches well the distinctive skyline profile of this ubiquitous New Zealand export (in Simpson, 2000, 213) Introduction / overview New Zealand gardens have been introduced to and cultivated in Australian gardens from early in their ‘discovery’, trade and exchanges between the two colonies. Australian and other explorers, botanists, nurserymen, New Zealand settlers and others searched New Zealand’s coasts and bush, bringing plants into cultivation, export and commerce from early in the settlement’s colonization. New Zealand plants have had their ‘vogue’ periods, including as: A) - Economic plants (various timbers, kauri gum for shellacs and jewellery; flax for fibre, rope, cloth; greens for scurvy; poroporo for the contraceptive ‘the pill’); B) - Exotic ornamental imports into Australian gardens and beyond to English and European conservatories (and some warmer, southern) gardens and parks; C) - Depicted or carved as subjects of botanical and other artworks, commercial commodities.

  • 4| the Plant Lists
    Native Vegetation for North Marlborough | A PLANTING & RESTORATION GUIDE 4| THE PLANT LISTS - USING THIS GUIDE North Marlborough is rich in native plant species, especially forest and coastal plants and including many rare, threatened or otherwise notable species. For this guide, a selection has been made of species that are widely known, typically available from local nurseries specialising in natives and – if well planted and cared for – can be grown successfully. Many other species are suitable for native restoration projects. For those taking on large-scale plantings, interested in propagating or ecosourcing their own plant material or particularly enthusiastic about North Marlborough flora, extra information is available from the Department of Conservation, Nelson. Once you have clarified the purpose of your planting and studied conditions at your chosen site, the following lists can be used to select suitable plant species according to ecological district, site conditions and personal preferences (such as growth form, height at maturity, attractiveness to birds and rarity). THE PLANT LISTS There are eight lists of plants altogether. The first three relate to different geographical areas in North Marlborough: Inland North Marlborough, Inner Sounds and Outer Sounds. These are shown on the map and also give a rough guide as to where plants should ideally be sourced from to ensure that ecosourcing principles are maintained. If it is not possible to obtain plants from within their own area, plants from elsewhere in North Marlborough should be used rather than plants from other parts of New Zealand. 36 | Native Vegetation for North Marlborough | A PLANTING & RESTORATION GUIDE The fourth and fifth lists identify plants most suited to coastal and wetland environments.
