Tree work in Caloundra
Pandanus on the water, bush behind
On the waterfront, the Queensland Heritage Register entry for the Tripcony Hibiscus caravan park notes pine and pandanus trees along the waterfront, with palms and cotton trees across the park. Listed trees like those are a matter for the register and the council.
Ben Bennett Bushland Park takes in Melaleuca and eucalypt forests, coastal heaths and one of the few patches of coastal lowland vine forest, and the council burns sections of it to reduce the volume of forest fuels. Homes on its edge are where branches over the roof and the gutters matter most in the dry months.

Caloundra questions
Storms, and the town's big figs
How bad do storms get here?
Bad enough to shut the golf club. A severe storm in January 2021 tore through Caloundra Golf Club, and the course superintendent said the storm cell uprooted big trees and stripped others. Trees that came through something like that are worth a look before the next one.
Can the big figs in town be cut back?
Not as a private job. The council kept the mature fig trees when it rejuvenated Bulcock Street, and it narrowed the transport corridor upgrade so that Bicentennial Park and a much-loved fig tree could stay. A fig in your own yard is quoted in the ordinary way.
