apothecary Posted March 22, 2006 What are some common natives or garden plants that could have a small amount of bark harvested to burn and use for the resulting white ash? I was thinking Paperbark...but curious for multiple sources. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rev Posted March 22, 2006 acacia salicina? other acacias? a bark rich in calcium or potassium would be best yeah? this guy uses grape or fruitwood http://users.chariot.net.au/~dna/toothpaste/toothpaste.htm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
foolsbreath Posted March 23, 2006 Yeah, grapes have a really high Pottasium uptake, Try getting some from a heavily irrigated area as there is more problems with salinity there, and ussually have rootstocks like Ruggerii and Schwartsman wwhich are highly salt tollerant. some people even say Australian wines tast salty Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
