Stage two,






I have made a few minor tweaks since the photos were taken, waiting on a little bit of length to get into the branches now, so I can get some hard movement into them. But, for first works it really showed me where this tree is headed.

Jason, two questions for you about the same thing: you're in the blue mountains, but the tree wasn't collected there right? I thought pjs wouldn't be native to that far up.

And if you're ground planting it, won't the constant frost of blue mountains winters kill it?

I love pjs so always want to talk about them. Thanks.

Hi dusty, I was collected in Newcastle, out of a gumtree hollow along with another. This one isn't planted in the ground, nor will it be. The frost is something to keep in mind for me and my few figs will be starting to come inside from this weekend on, just for the night time though. Will keep them on my deck during the day so they can soak up as much light and heat as possible.

Ah I misread your signature as your explanation as to why it was withdrawn.

Thanks for the info. Lucky find. All the best with it.
