 WELCOME TO THE NATIONAL REGISTER OF BIG TREESAustralia's LARGEST trees of a particular species are recorded in this Register. The register is an integrated list of Australian native [indigenous] trees, and naturalised [exotics/alien] trees. Points are awarded on the basis of a formula that includes, girth, height, and crown spread. The list is constantly changing as people take a good look at trees in their backyards, on pavements, in community parks, and explore wilderness areas. Become a Champion Nominator! See Tree Nomination & Tree Measurement for all the information you need. You do not have to be an expert on trees, or on how to measure a tree. The Tree Register will have these headings:
Common Name
Scientific Name Points State and Region Town Age The Register will work closely with all Federal and State Forestry/Environmental Departments and related entities, such as National Parks, that have interests that parallel the Objectives of this Register. This close cooperation, and website linking, will extend to all Shire, City and Town Councils, Botanical Gardens, Greening Australia, and the National Trust of Australia. The Register is not only about big big Trees. It covers all the wonderful garden, pavement and park trees we have in our communities. The creation of this Register started in May 2009. We need your help to populate the Register. Please tell all your friends about it. |
