The Tree Company

These three mature Canary Island Date Palms (Phoenix canariensis) continue to thrive several years after being relocated as part of the Moreland Station Level Crossing Removal Project.

The Tree Company was engaged by John Holland to manage the relocation, nursery maintenance and eventual re-establishment of the palms while construction works were completed.

After approximately 15 months in our nursery, the palms were returned to site and replanted alongside the restored heritage station building.

It's great to see them looking so healthy and continuing to contribute to the character of the precinct today.

A fantastic outcome for John Holland, Merri-bek City Council, NWPA and everyone involved in the project.

We're looking forward to exhibiting at Sustainability Business Live at MCEC Melbourne on 3–4 June 2026 in partnership with Thermal Haven Nest Boxes.
Come and visit us to learn more about wildlife habitat creation, nest box programs, tree planting and biodiversity projects. We'll be showcasing how councils, businesses and community groups can deliver meaningful environmental outcomes through turnkey habitat programs, including site selection, supply, installation by ISO-certified arborists, GPS mapping, completion reporting and ongoing monitoring.
Whether you're looking to create habitat for gliders, birds, bats or other wildlife, or develop a larger-scale sustainability or community project, we'd love to have a chat (our stand is next door to Birdlife Australia's).

Great to see the next generation of arborists coming through at the recent ATCC New Arborist of the Year climbing comp in Hobart, part of the Arboriculture Australia Conference.

Lorren and James from The Tree Company stepped up and got involved — both are quality arborists and easily could have taken it out on the day.

Absolute beast of a shroom found in bushland in a reserve in Whittlesea.
Sponge underneath instead of gills, so part of the bolete group — a Giant Bolete (Phlebopus). They’re around, but you don’t see them this size very often.
Seeing a lot more fungi popping up at the moment with the recent moisture — they don’t hang around long but do a lot of work breaking down organic matter and feeding the soil.

What’s better than starting tree planting season? 700 trees delivered and ready to plant across Melbourne municipalities in the first week.

It’s just a start! Many more to plant to get to our target of 4000 this year. This is where Arboriculture starts.

Next is to nurture them into the urban forest!🌳

Exciting times.

Pairing two Thermal Haven parrot boxes in St Kilda — deep hollows preferred by native parrots and usually avoided by Indian Mynas, creating space for a family group to nest together.

Box Hill Oval – Hedge Transplant for Whitehorse City Council
A unique project as part of Whitehorse City Council’s upgrade works at Box Hill Oval.�To make room for new practice cricket nets, we transplanted a 25-metre section of the historic boundary hedge — an important feature that provides privacy, wind buffering and character around the oval.
We used a purpose-designed sliding transplant method: separating the hedge into five sections with hydro-excavation, then sliding each section using a custom steel backing plate and heavy haulage. No lifting — the heavy clay soil held each root plate together so the sections could move as one unit.
We left the hedge unpruned to minimise stress, and we’ll return once it’s recovered to reduce and reshape.

A great result and a strong example of arboriculture and engineering working together.

Call now to connect with business.

Dead Manna Gum removal in Camberwell — overhangin an aged care facility and 3 neighbouring properties.

Climbing + track EWP = controlled dismantle, piece by piece.
Right planning, right equipment, right people — that’s what makes the difference.
Crew smashed it, safe, clean, efficient.
