W.A.L.T: transplant seedlings (pingao) into root training trays.
SUCCESS CRITERIA:
First fill the root training trays with soil.
Use a plastic knife to carefully cut out a tiny Pingao plant.
Hold the Pingao and dig a small hole using our free hand.
Then fill the trays with the baby plants!
These pingao plants will be cared for by Awapuni Nurseries and when they are big enough will be planted out at a beach, helping to preserve the sand dunes.
We worked with Kelly Slater from the Department of Conservation.
