Is anyone growing this? I've heard it's possibly extinct in the wild now.

| I've never heard of it and the only kunzea under 'c' listed in my references is k. capitata and that doesn't appear to be a threateded one. Capitata is a NSW variety. I'd be interested to know if anybody else knows of it. |

Thanks, Guys. It is being grown here in Toowoomba (including by the Toowoomba resident/author of the article you referred us to, justcorreas.) I was curious to know whether it was known of, elsewhere. It's obviously very rare and, I think, has just missed out on extinction by a squeak. Thank goodness for gardeners who grow rare things.

| Hi Trish, It would be good to see photos of the Kunzea calida flowers. Norm must have some photos of them by now? The article is dated 2004. Cheers, Frank |
