mick lennon australia USDA Zone:tro 16 Aug 2008 | hi one of my many loves of my love is being associated with this plant . Growing it in soft soil with a shovel full of soil from the parent tree, sprinkle of phosfate and irrigated thru the dry season, watch it grow.Pascoe and Claudie river seed has been trielled fully,by C.S.I.R.O.,forestry private co.s such as Wattle Hill Station on Cape York Peninsula Queensland. Outstanding performance has always interested me .These days I collect the seed. fire promotes and maintanes a fire prone environment.So remember excellant firebreaks ,cleen and accessable |
