| g'day pam, one plant that you can't get a lot of info' on hey, anyway for the most unless they are very small i've never had any joy in transplanting natives of any sort they seem to set their root systems deept then start growing on the top. the 'clausena' budded seeds you gave me most grew well to the first leaf stage then stagnated and started to die in 4" tubes so put them into 6" pots they still wanted to die some hung on and looked like they wanted to grow new leaves but then wanted to die so put the remainder into 1 gallon pots got one hanging in there but not wanting to grow and another hovering between life and death. me just can't figure what they need/want tried a very week solution of a seaweed liquid fert but they didn't seem to want that as 2 more died at that stage. so hoping at least one lasts long enough for me to plant it out in the coming summer in the new garden. maybe give it a go hey the new owner may neglect it and let it die anyway. len |

| ok pam, ready to do just that as i had hoped i could do well with those seeds you gave me, but i am very dissapointed with my efforts ok there was good germination which was strange for me (but that was from your initial efforts), but there after they all just want to die. they get very well developed root systems but no top growth. so if i do eventually lose these 2 i can get tube stock from maleny somewhere? and direct me to tom also maybe he can help me save the last 2. all i can further suggest is to take a good root ball say a bit out side the drip zone and maybe at least the depth of the plant??? it may survive that. len |
