Content
This may have been R Lloyd's personal folder. Contains copious notes by F Morrison on early control plans (mainly 1950) and details of kauri propagation and establishment, some trials incorporating fertilisers. Various early Waipoua sample plots are referred to. Most trials probably long abandoned. Last entry is by R Lloyd (30.11.71) on the condition of two Waipoua seed orchards established with grafts from selected seed trees (1956-61).
