Cheers guys and also thanks Raymond for the new bookmarks, they look like great resources.
Unfortunately these as well as most of my Aussie natives didn't make it after my own stupidity. Turns out the seaweed stuff I can get here is nothing like seasol and about 3000x more concentrate. Lesson learned. I have only one surviving Callistemon and even that has struggled back to life twice.
Never fear I do have more seeds left and hopefully will plant them out once the heat drops a bit so the saga can continue for another year or two.
Actually if these are a Lepto I would class that as a score.
I think it's a Mel, but which one?

Cheers, my fault though and at least I can pin point the error so not all bad.
Got to be honest I can't make much of that pic.
Not sure if these help...
Pretty sure it came from one of these two packets.
I could get the macro lens out but got to find it first.

Unlucky mate. Hope your Callistemon makes it through.
And you're welcome for the links!

Hi Starfox . I wouldn't rule out incana . I have a vague recollection that they look similar to this when immature . I grew these back in the 80 s when I worked at a wholesale nursery . I don't think it makes much difference at this stage in growing techniques except that itch in not knowing .
