The Dalmarie tree is native to the region, so it naturally grows here, which is excellent. It’s sturdy against strong winds, and animals don’t eat it, making it a perfect tree to spread across deforested mountainsides. In fact, it doesn’t need much watering to grow and survive, and when it rains, the roots help filter water down into the underground aquifers that feed the nearby freshwater springs that people depend on for drinking water. This year we will plant them as the first layer of forest to shade and protect the future plantings of many other more fragile tree species.
We'll keep you updated as they grow!
