Re: some final colour
Beautiful autumn colours in your neck of the woods Noah, the ginkgo is superb. I work in a garden at Mt Dandenong which has a great specimen of Lindera Japonica, it has the best yellow autumn colours I have ever seen, you should try to find one for your garden.

ill have a look around we have one nursery here i deal with who is pretty good and if they dont have it maybe able to get it in. does it have a common name and how big can they get? im chasing a mature japanese maple grafted variety WATERFALL i have a small one in the garden and its colour was amazing! i want a bigger one
Tony
the place is looking not too bad atm i have 2 large liquid ambers in the front of the garden that are turning, messy trees but they do provide shade etc for my dwarf maples etc. i just planted 300 tulips yestaday with 250 still to do. it should look pretty nice come spring.

Re: some final colour
Hi Noah, Lindera is a small tree, palmatum size and needs a bit of protection from the hottest sun, Yamina in Monbulk stock them. There is one in the bonsai museum in Omiya.
With regards to your maple try Nishiki who posts here from time to time he grows beautiful disectums and lots of cultivars

Re: some final colour
Beautiful Ginko Noah, stunning colour. I have a"Waterfall" and purchased it from Dicksonias rare plant nursery in Macedon.Also got my Rhus from there. I am not promoting them but they have some unusual trees.

Re: some final colour
Yes Bodhi, dicksonia is a great nursery but you need a fairly thick wallet, waterfall is reasonably freely available up here. I have Rhus suckering all over the place on my nature strip.

Re: some final colour
I haven't tried them yet Bodhi but I have a mulch pile down there and was loading up the barrow and noticed one of the older ones has a nice curved trunk and the bark is starting to crack so it may get dug up this winter. I think they would only be grown for autumn colour
