    Cannabis Gender ID?

    Or were the shots sourced online, or from a friend?

    Cannabis Gender ID?

    Looks pretty incriminating to me..

    yopo seed pods

    At the place where the yopo is growing in pots both those species thrive all year round. Subtropical coastal - absolute minimum in winter of about 1-3C but rarely gets below 5-7C..

    yopo seed pods

    I have a colubrina about 8y.o in the ground for about 3 years that is now about 6m high with a spreading crown of over 5m wide. It flowered first about 5 y.o. and did not set seed until last year at 7 y.o. when I got about 50 good seeds from 6 or 7 pods. Despite (or perhaps because of) extreme drought conditions it has flowered well already and produced 20+ pods that are just ripening. It then went and flowered en-masse a few weeks back. Should have lots of seeds soon. I also have 2 peregrina in large pots... they seem more finicky and delicate (perhaps because of the subtropical and not tropical conditions). I hope to get em in the ground soon to hopefully get em moving..

    Psychotria Sp. ID

    Doesn't look like coffee to me. Serrate leaves not right..

    Does someone legally have to have an identity?

    Do you wish to drive or use the banking system? Because if you do then you will need an identity and relevant documentation etc etc... If you wanna live in the hills (or wherever remote you wish) and not do these things or any other form of engagement in society then possibly not..

    I like big buttress I cannot lie, and other trees I can't deny!

    Yep... did what you said and look at the failure of these tallowwoods.. just measured the tallest known tree in NSW - an 80m tall tallowwood close to these tiny suckers...

    Kava in australia?

    Vanuatu is where it is at.. it has the full kavalactone profile.... Kava from Fiji and elsewhere lacks a number of the {best} kavalactones..

    Kava in australia?

    Tragically as far as I am aware nowhere to buy it in natural form in Australia (nor legal to do so)... there used to be some mighty fine product available...

    Pittorsporum undulatum - Wavy-leaved or Sweet Pittosporum or Native Daphne.. http://plantnet.rbgsyd.nsw.gov.au/cgi-bin/NSWfl.pl?page=nswfl&lvl=sp&name=Pittosporum~undulatum There is an amazing app for ID of rainforest plants - "Rainforest Plants of Australia - Rockhampton to Victoria" costs close to $50 (most expensive app I have ever purchased) - but absolutely worth it.. I think it contains data on a couple of thousand species and is updated.. You can enter visible features and the app narrows down the ID.. I use it every time I am in the scrub..

    Likely G. aspera - seiberiana is big, up to 3m. Nuts for aspera: nut broad-ovoid to globose, 4.5–6.0 mm long, 2.5–4.0 mm diam., dark red-brown, shining Nuts for seiberiana: Nut 2.5–4.0 mm long Although for NSW - probably helpful to check out: http://plantnet.rbgsyd.nsw.gov.au/cgi-bin/NSWfl.pl?page=nswfl&lvl=gn&name=Gahnia

    Silky purple-flag, Patersonia sericea .. Yum yum..
  20. And not so much of a backyard visitor - but a back of bed one a few weeks ago. Was lying in bed reading a magazine close to midnight (couldn't sleep) when I felt a movement about 10cm to my right.. Twas the critter in the photo attached. A 1.2m long (and deadly) Stephens Banded Snake, Hoplocephalus stephensii - it was a chilly night and she was looking to snuggle under my doona.. A bit freaky....
  21. Reviving this thread with a couple of visitors tonight.. Heaviest rain in yonks brought these ancient critters, Fletcher's Frog or Sandpaper Frog, Lechriodus fletcheri, out of the forest floor for a root in my bird bath
  22. Yo PH/WC... Birds enrich our existences so much. Thanks for your story. When I have a bit more time I will share some of my own and a few piccies. Go well and enjoy the bird circus that is Spring!!

    Hey thanks Micro Yes I thought it looked like Duboisia hopwoodii - interested to have confirmation of this from The Breeze.. Chasing and photographing fascinating natives is one of my greatest interests... Would be good to keep this thread pumping.. Love da Bombax...
