Yes I presume all the comments above can see the same interest in the leptos that I saw.

I love the Angophora one of my favourite trees. Great score. Thanks for sharing.
Have you seen Ted's in Canberra? I saw it at Ted's nursery shortly after it fell over in his back yard during a storm.
He was quick, the next thing it was in a large pot being trained as a furture bonsai with an order to Japan for a special pot to be made for it.

Hahaha, you make me laugh kirky. I have placed my toe in the lepto world.... But just about every experienced member on this forum probably knows more about lepto than I. But I do have a habit of going all in when I begin to take a new interest in a species. Leptospermum and Callitris are my 2 new favourite genus to experiment with.
I admit I get a bit obsessed when I like a genus and want to try numerous species.
Yeas I have seen Teds Angophora, it has quite a base on it. Very impressive. Wow. No I wasn't aware it had dropped... Crikey! That thing is huge!
Same with Angophora too.... I think I have a few species now too of them.
In my opinion bakeri is the best species of the angophoras to work with... Mainly because of their hardiness and smaller leaf size. They are also resistant to stupidity.... (Spraying chemicals on a hot day)... Almost killed a few floribunda from this but the bakeri didn't care. Bakeri also seem far less bothered by drought or pests than any other Angophora I've tried.
