Situated on the Scotchmans Creek in East Oakleigh, this wetland was carfully retrofitted to the floodplain of Scothmans Creek by Melbourne Water.
Australian Ecosystems have successfully established a diverse range of robust aquatic, ephemeral and terrestrial species on this wetland.
This system is very responsive to rain events, and tends to pulse whenever it rains in the built up urban catchment feeding the system.
These characteristics require robust, tall, mature, well developed plants in specialised formats in order to withstand these conditions and successfully establish vegetation.
Australian Ecosystems specialises in these techniques.
