The environmental rehabilitation after the #KnysnaFires has been amazing! @wo_fire @KnysnaMuni https://t.co/9JsLpUt4ox

[Helen Zille @helenzille]

Magnificent rehabilitation of the mountain slopes after Knysna fires. Alien species kept out by hydrological re-seeding of indigenous plants, through spraying a wood mesh slurry filled with seeds, that holds water, prevents erosion and stimulates new growth.

[Helen Zille @helenzille]

This is how hydro-seeding works. A slurry with an inert poplar wood base is mixed with liquid and indigenous seed to create a spray-on "net" that prevents erosion, stops alien re-growth, holds in the moisture, and strengthens indigenous growth.
