A good friend of mine recently propagated 6 aussie boab's and gave me a seedling, it was 50 mm tall with the seed pod still on top.. its now 200mm.. still very young and fragile! Container growing advice is scares, from what i can gather they grow in very hot, harsh conditions with sandy, poor soil.. treatment sounds similar to that of the 'desert rose', 'cacti' and 'succulents', i will be using a similar potting mix when i repot in a bit over a year.....
The anticipation is much!!!!:!: These trees are AMAZING!!!! The genus is estimated at 60 million years old!! Gondwanaland times!!!
Anyway i found the article about the one pictured above and thought id share... What an epic repot!!!
Hope it survives! luke
