Description
Caption "Growing things. UPE Milkwood; A line of young milkwoods residential area of the University of Port Elzabeth campus. Thhey are being trained as standards, having been grown from seeds selected from upright forms of versatile Milkwood. Protected in nature, Milkwoods, Sideroxylon inerme, are being grown in fair numbers on the campus as they are among the relatively few trees that will accept the hard growing conditions on the sandy, limestone soil. Their crowns are being created well above the ground to form them into shade trees relatively quickly. The student in the picture, taken some time ago , is Johanna Jonker. Eastern Province Herald, Wednesday, October 8, 1980."
