MrMand Posted February 7, 2010 Hello friends, Does anyone in the QLD area have access to this plant, or more specifically, its seed bearing fruit? Among my regular gardening endeavors I also have a knack for more exotic specimens, the stinging tree being of particular interest to me (I am aware of it's downside!). Please let me know, we can work something out. MrMand Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weedRampage Posted February 9, 2010 (edited) I know where to find the stinging tree easily, Dendrocnide excelsa. Next to Wollongong there is some hills on the highway and some rainforest with many mature stinging trees. There is a hill climb coming out of town on the main road and the hills are without any development because of mine subsidence. Moroides... it's called the Gympie stinger so off to Gympie might be a hot tip. Being a member of the Hemp/Fig/Nettle family does anyone know of any traditional uses for this plant?

MrMand Posted February 12, 2010 Great mate. Have you checked recently to see if they are flowering or bearing fruit this time of year? Check your inbox. -MrMand. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
