Hey! Yeah it's still available Pick up this weekend if possible as I'm moving next week

@Flux - are you still keen on any of the acacias? The Floribunda is still available.

Hi @Flux - they're all still with me at the moment, I'm waiting for a member to come down from the Hunter region to collect what they can before assessing what's left! I'll update the list by the end of this week... Also have a nice 1m tall Acacia Simplex if you're interested. And what a coincidence, I'm moving to a suburb next to Summer Hill! Got a nice spot in the ground for the 2 large courtiis (that I got from you from seed)! They're very strong and healthy, I'm so happy with them.

Indeed they are gorgeous plants - and I've enjoyed watching them grow! Our confusa did well with no extra care this winter down to 1 degC in Sydney area, it can take quite a beating despite being common to the tropics I've found inoculating them really helps with their overall vigour and strength.

Hi everyone, I'm planning on moving and unfortunately need to part with my lovely plants... I've got a few acacia varieties (about 1.5m+ tall) to give away: 1. 1x Acacia Floribunda 2. 1x Acacia Obtusifolia 3. 1x Acacia Acuminata (Narrow phyllode variety) 4. 1x Acacia Confusa 5. 1x Acacia Acuminata (Broad phyllode variety) 6. 1x Acacia Victoriae (bramble wattle) - this one is smaller, like 0.5m tall See below attached pics for what they look like - I can also PM more pics if you'd like. Pick up south-west Sydney region. You'll need a large car, similar in size to a ute or a van for pickup. Cheers!

Hi everyone, Eden seeds no longer stocks H & I inoculant - has anyone found an alternative source to purchase them?

Thank you @saguaro and @Glaukus! Following your advice I’ve just popped them in a more shaded area and sprinkled some gypsum + seasol. Hopefully they will recover under kinder conditions! The huizache variety has been particularly difficult - I bought a batch of seeds last summer and most of them died before the summer was over. Three powered through winter but kept reddening/shrivelling until they finally weakened to the sorry state that you see in the photo. I kept them in a dry shaded area throughout winter which did well for the other lophs. Any thoughts as to whether the huizache is a particularly sensitive variety? Thinking of buying another batch of seeds and testing out different environments year round (very humid, slightly, no humidity and so forth)!

Hi everyone, I'd love some help with my LW var Huizache (see attached photo) - it's all red, stressed and shriveled up and I'm not sure what the right growing conditions for it are. I've got a few other varieties (standard LW, LW var Texana and a few other types) and these all grow perfectly well outdoors in the Sydney area with the same soil type (perlite, sand, cactus soil in 1:1:1 ratio). What am I doing wrong? Does var Huizache need a different environment? Higher humidity? Any advice is appreciated!

Hello nature lovers, After raging fires, drought, COVID-19, our Blue Mountains are under threat again, with the proposed duplication of the Great Western Highway. Unlike QLD and VIC who prioritise their rail strategies, NSW is investing heavily in roads to carry freight in B-double & B-triple trucks. Some of the benefits of rail over road include: • Rail helps make businesses more competitive. To move one tonne of freight one kilometre by an articulated truck costs 2.79 cents, and 0.24 cents by rail. In other words, you’ll pay more for the same product if its delivered to you by road instead of rail. • Rail is better for the environment. Rail uses one third of the diesel that trucks use in haul freight. Moving all truck freight to rail would save 450 million litres of diesel each year. Carbon dioxide emissions would reduce by more than one million tonnes. • Rail helps save lives. There were over 1100 road fatalities in 2019 compared to 20 rail fatalities (not involving cases with suspected suicide). Queensland and Victoria recognise the benefits of rail and are prioritising their rail freight strategies. Only NSW seeks to accommodate more freight by increasing dangerous B-double and B-triple truck activity. We stand to lose with this decision. The main beneficiaries of road freight are not the truck drivers who work hard in a dangerous occupation, but trucking companies with lobbying power like TNT and Lindsay Fox. We need another 5000 signatures to have this matter debated in parliament & to find a rail solution for all of NSW - please consider signing here: http://chng.it/4rt5YYFp8Z

Taken! Thank you all
