The vegetation was represented by a low, open Banksia woodland with emergent Eucalyptus marginata, on neutral yellow sands belonging to the Spearwood Dune System. Of 183 plant species recorded, 41 were introduced. The tree canopy comprised 5 species with Banksia attenuata dominant. Xanthorrhoea preissii was the most abundant understorey species. Macro- and micro-nutrient analyses were conducted on soil, plant and litter samples. The soil was found to be deficient in C, P and nitrate N, but relatively high in K. Species belonging to the Leguminosae family contained nearly twice the nitrate N content in above-ground tissue compared to species in other families.
