This year’s feature display ~ Kitscape’s Angel Wing Labyrinth ~ brings to you an awareness-raising opportunity to support the devastated town of Marysville, destroyed in the Black Saturday bushfires in February 2009.

Kitscape has a strong association with the bushfire-affected community, and are committed to installing a Kitscape meditation labyrinth in the town, to provide a place for people to heal and reflect on the tragic events.

Kitscape’s feature display will be available to the highest bidder at the show, to help raise funds for the creation of a 13 metre labyrinth in Marysville, Victoria. Funds raised on the stand, will be channelled through the Murrundindi Shire’s Bushfire Appeal Fund, in support of the project. Memorial DVDs will also be on sale.

Accord Tree Consultants can provide a fast response check on the vigour and health of plants via use of our ‘Hansatech’ brand Fluorimeter. This instrument delivers an intense light flash to covered foliage samples and is used to then interpret the plant’s vigour and stress levels.

If you are involved with carrying out remedial care on trees and other plants this test can give you hard and fast numbers for the success (or otherwise) of the care being given.

Free tests on plant samples will be carried out for attendees at the upcoming Landscape Expo. Just bring along 5-6 fresh representative sample leaves and we will assess the plant and give feedback.

Shopping Centres / Councils /Hotels / Courtyards / Private Gardens are just some of the venues where our products are displayed.  Quality and style are values and not just words at Motyaj.  30 years distributing to the Landscape / Designer and Commercial Market of Australia has taught us that.
