Abstract

Economic, ecological and silvicultural arguments are presented, indicating that the use of Virgilia oroboides for timber production is a definite possibility. Large areas in the Southern Cape and Tsitsikamma regions are ideally suited for this indigenous species, yet only exotics are presently being planted for commercial timber production.
