Grevillea hilliana, White Yiel Yiel, Grey Oak or Hill's Silky Oak, is yet another Grevillea from Australian rainforests. Like Grevillea baileyana, it is a tree, with extremely large, lobed juvenile leaves characteristically silvery white on the undersurface. In Queensland it is relatively common and grows in subtropical rainforest frequently associated with igneous soils. In the far north, it is more likely to be found in seasonally dry rainforest, often associated with Agathis robusta, the Kauri Pine. It can be found as far north as Mount Molloy on the Atherton Tablelands north-west of Cairns and extends south to the north-eastern corner of NSW. However, G. hilliana is quite rare in NSW, and occurs in just a few small areas of remnant rainforest in the vicinity of Brunswick Heads, Tweed Heads and Byron Bay and it is considered to be at risk of extinction. It has been listed as an Endangered Species by the NSW Scientific Committee in accordance with the Threatened Species Conservation Act 1995. Since the 1970s there has been resurgence in popularity of Australian Native Plants. However, give this some thought! In 1791, three Grevillea species, G. buxifolia, G. linearifolia and G. sericea (all grow in the bushland area of campus on the northern side of the M2) were established as garden plants in England!! And Grevillea hilliana was first cultivated in England in18621! M.

POLICY No 7 LANDSCAPING
POLICY No 7 POLICY No 7 LANDSCAPING DOUGLAS SHIRE COUNCIL PLANNING SCHEME POLICY NO 7 Landscaping Intent The intent of this Policy is to specify landscaping procedures, design requirements and a Plant Species Schedule for developments which have landscaping requirements. This Policy should be read in conjunction with the Landscaping Code and other relevant parts of the Planning Scheme. Objectives The objectives of this Policy are: • to ensure high quality landscaping throughout the Shire; • to provide for a distinctive landscape character to develop in different Localities throughout the Shire; and • to establish guidelines which ensure high quality landscaping is provided and maintained as an important visual element which contributes to the landscape integrity of the Shire. Content This Landscaping Policy incorporates the following: • Landscape Procedures and Assessment; • Minimum Design Requirements for Development • Minimum Design Requirements for Reconfiguring a Lot • Landscape Zones in the Douglas Shire • Plant Species Schedule Information to be Provided Detailed Landscape Plans prepared by a suitably qualified professional drawn to scale, are to be submitted to the Council for assessment prior to the issue of a Building Permit. However, in the case of developments which are Code assessable or Impact assessable, a Landscape Plan is to be submitted with the Development Assessment Application. The Landscape Plan is to address the requirements set out in the Landscaping Code and to include: • the location, size, and species of existing vegetation; • vegetation to be retained and necessary protective measures; • any vegetation proposed to be removed; • existing and proposed surface levels; August, 2006 Page 48 • location of hard and soft landscaped areas; • the indicative location, number, size and species of plants; and • a Statement of Intent outlining the intent of each element of the Plan.

Species Selection Guidelines Tree Species Selection
Species selection guidelines Tree species selection This section of the plan provides guidance around the selection of species for use as street trees in the Sunshine Coast Council area and includes region-wide street tree palettes for specific functions and settings. More specific guidance on signature and natural character palettes and lists of trees suitable for use in residential streets for each of the region's 27 Local plan areas are contained within Part B – Street tree strategies of the plan. Street tree palettes will be periodically reviewed as an outcome of street tree trials, the development of new species varieties and cultivars, or the advent of new pest or disease threats that may alter the performance and reliability of currently listed species. The plan is to be used in association with the Sunshine Coast Council Open Space Landscape Infrastructure Manual where guidance for tree stock selection (in line with AS 2303–2018 Tree stock for landscape use) and tree planting and maintenance specifications can be found. For standard advanced tree planting detail, maintenance specifications and guidelines for the selection of tree stock see also the Sunshine Coast Open Space Landscape Infrastructure Manual – Embellishments – Planting Landscape). The manual's Plant Index contains a comprehensive list of all plant species deemed suitable for cultivation in Sunshine Coast amenity landscapes. For specific species information including expected dimensions and preferred growing conditions see Palettes – Planting – Planting index). 94 Sunshine Coast Street Tree Master Plan 2018 Part A Tree nomenclature Strategic outcomes The names of trees in this document follow the • Trees are selected by suitably qualified and International code of botanical nomenclature experienced practitioners (2012) with genus and species given, followed • Tree selection is locally responsive and by the plant's common name.
