Fremantle is a port city in Western Australia located at the mouth of the Swan River in the metropolitan area of Perth, the state capital. Fremantle Harbour serves as the port of Perth. The Western Australian vernacular diminutive for Fremantle is Freo.
Soil zone · Spearwood Sands
Yellow-brown sands over Tamala limestone at varying depth. Free-draining with mildly alkaline pH from the underlying limestone.
- Drainage
- High
- Water retention
- Low
Irrigation strategyModerate cycles work well. Plant selection should suit alkaline pH. Standard pop-up and rotor systems are effective.
Installation notesLimestone often hit at 300-800mm depth - plan trenching accordingly. Rock saw or hand pick may be required. Consider above-ground manifolds where rock is shallow.
Groundwater · Jandakot Mound
Smaller unconfined aquifer south of the Swan/Canning Rivers, between the coast and the Darling Scarp. Supports the southern garden-bore network.
- Bore prevalence
- High
- Water table
- 2-6 m
Bore considerationsPublic Drinking Water Source Area (PDWSA) overlays restrict some bore activity. Iron and tannin in groundwater common. Drilling regulated under DWER.
