A nursery in the Atherton Tablelands is closing down, another sad loss to the nursery business as this is fairly specific to Australian Native trees
Known as Yagura, it is up for liquidation.
I have had the opportunity to pick up some trees from the over the years and they will be a sad loss to me also if they close.
This one (of two) that I got for the day, and at $16 is a tree only discovered in NQ in 2004 at a little place called Ravenswood in NQ. so very endemic to NQ.
It apparently grows normally, mostly as a tree as opposed to a multi trunk clump as it's close relatives do but as you can see this clearly wants to be a clump, so why fight it.
This as you can imagine is simply its first haircut, I have an idea as to a front but that will not doubt change, it's back to my "junk pile" for a couple of years now to see what it does.
The diversity of foliage on Mel's never ceases to amaze me, when you look at this and its twin post
Hope you enjoy

I think you got a good score here and something a bit different.
