I've taken cuttings from some Brunswick alleyway plants (in Melbourne) that have gone ballistic, the shiny-leafed fruiting varieties alongside their "weedy" root-stock variants -- in full sun the leaves grow a reddish colour. To my shame, I've in the past exterminated "wild passionfruit" vines, probably P. incarnata.
The most common rootstock used is P. caerulea, as W.C mentioned. It's a bastard of a plant to get rid of once it's invaded.

I'd love to try growing this, would be much appreciated

No I don't remember them being dark.
But I also have a terrible memory, so there's that

@withdrawl clinic sadly none sprouted for me, even with a heat mat to help along. I still have the container going just in case there is still hope
Thanks to your generous spirit!!

1 hour ago, Flux said:Nice One @SayN - and kudos Xperiment for giving away such aught after trees. I'm just about to repot my oldest Courtii today ...also noticed a pair of flower buds on it a few weeks ago too. I reckon there should be a decent amount of domestic Courtii seed appearing early next year too -as the first round of Courti's that Rowan and Julian Palmer distributed in 2016 bear fruit
Beautiful! Fingers crossed for more seeds getting around

Check out my acacia courtii seedling giveaway here, ending 8th October
-
Ok I have one only Acacia courtii seedling to give away.
Post a sequential number, and a pic of an acacia you have grown, preferably from seed. I would prefer this little one goes to someone with some experience growing acacia, to know that it will be looked after.
The seed was given away here by @communacacian for wattle day 2 years ago (holy shit time flies)
Approx 25-30cm tall. Postage covered by me, not to WA or Tas due to plant quarantine restrictions. Australia only.
The winner will be chosen by random number generator at about 8pm on Wednesday 7th October
Pics when I get home from work

One of the identifying features that may help you differentiate from the many lookalikes (esp when not flowering) is the reddish leaf margin when held up to the light, which you can see really well in @rottenjonny's 3rd photo.
Nicely done!

I've heard it was used as a tea for calming or relaxation by white early settlers, in the same way as hops, thus the common name hop bush. No personal experience though

4 hours ago, Pie'oh'Pah said:I've put up a topic but I was going to use some water crystals to keep the roots moist during transport. thinking even some damp paper towel may be as good.
Anyone shipped something similar and have some tips I'll take some photos of the Pots now I've had them for years and they were really old when I got them.
Moist Coconut fibre (coir) is the go. $2 brick makes a bucket full

I'll be in that! Pm'd you

Congrats Dozer.
And thanks Enjaytee for running the giveaway. Legend!

Does anyone have a preferred source of cordyceps (powder/capsules/tincture/whatever)?
I'd like to try a small amount first so looking for a little bit at a reasonable price, decent quality.
Thanks
Surprise find - phyllodium pulchellum

On a trip up the coast with kids for sport... Stopped in at a nursery in Nambucca Heads, and surprised to see Phyllodium pulchellum plants for sale and they're loaded with seed pods
