2017 Clonal cypress trial, Compartment 1002, Kaingaroa BOP Copy 1

By Dean Satchell, Toby Stovold and Vaughan Kearns, June 2021.

This Scion clonal hybrid cypress trial was planted in July 2017 in radiata pine cutover, so was 3 ²/₃ years old at the time measurements were taken during March 2021.

Location is at Kaingaroa in the Central Plateau, on pumice soil. The climate is very cold in winter but with a reasonably even rainfall pattern.

The trees on this site were noted to be "more uniform than Pipiwai and bigger than Tarawera" (sister trials).
