    i mean the 3 trunks on the very right close to the frame, 2/3 up, whiteish trunks at the bottom, top parts dark, where the bark was left still on.

     

    it's a myth, that the bottom bark, contains more alkaloids.it just easier to harverest.

    stripping top branches, will harm the tree less.

    Ah, I see what you mean. I did notice that at the time, but it didn't occur to me that's what had happened there.

    looks the trees in this pic got vandalised

    The broken-off branch is a different species, it's blocking the view of where the slender curved branch continues into the earth.

    I didn't remove this snail, and now - more than 3 weeks later - this plant remains untouched (not even a nibble). But other plants weren't so lucky. (I found a small TBM pup that had been entirely hollowed out, with a circular tunnel right through the middle of it).

    I'm fairly confident the small plant I originally received was a rooted cutting, not a seedling. I've uploaded some pics of the same plant, cloned, with characteristic red foliage. I'm not sure why the mother tree is so green this year -- it was overshadowed by some ferocious racehorse trees, and probably received a lot more rainfall this season than usual.

    Anybody's guess. I seem to have 3 x different hybrids from last batch. One with huge phyllodes and vigorous, one that grows miniature and very slow, one that looks a bit more like classic phleb. Different shaped phyllodes, I posted a pic. in the forums about a month ago. Previous year's batch looked classic phleb, but I accidentally killed 90% of them with fertiliser. They really take off after the first year.
