  1. Thank you for the information. I will again contact you soon again. We are in a planning process to plant indigenous Trees in Zululand and now know where and how to get all the information we need. Our web page for Zululand Centre Ensuring Excellence (www.zcee.org) is still under construction but will give you a good idea about our Vision and Mission. I do not plan to order a copy of the book right now, will do in the near future!!!
