COMBAT LANTANA INVASION
Expert Mulching Solutions
Native to tropical and subtropical regions of Central and South America, lantana is a heavily branched shrub that can grow as compact clumps, dense thickets, and scrambling and climbing vines. It can smother native vegetation and form impenetrable stands.
Lantana covers 5 million hectares (12.35 million acres) throughout most coastal and hinterland areas of Australia, from north Queensland to southern New South Wales, including the Northern Territory and Western Australia. Lantana could also spread to Victoria. Lantana is a restricted invasive plant under the Biosecurity Act 2014.
There are 29 varieties of lantana in Australia, and in 2003, it was listed as the most significant environmental weed by the Southeast Queensland Environmental Weeds Management Group (Source: Department of the Environment and Heritage and the CR for Australian Weed Management). Lantana creates hotter bushfires and spoils the beauty and usability of the natural landscape.
It is important to act quickly to prevent lantana from spreading. If your property is comprised of standing trees, scrub, brush or debris – either green or dead, Vinton Tree Services & Plant Hire lantana mulcher can help you control lantana. We can also reduce large amounts of vegetation to mulch, increasing the utility and value of your property and allowing for easier maintenance.

ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY
Consultancy / Advice
Our forest mowing technique involves using large equipment mowers to cut and grind plant stems, leaving them shredded. This method stresses plants beyond regeneration, as they expend energy trying to repair the damage, ultimately depleting their root systems. The ground remains covered with mulch-like debris, enriching the soil with decomposed nutrients. At Vinton Tree Services & Plant Hire, we prioritise preserving the balance and biodiversity of your forest. Our environmentally friendly practices ensure that your land is maintained with minimal impact on its natural ecosystem, promoting long-term health and vitality.
