acacia floribunda

Post by Max »

tube stock from the Landcare nursery i got a year ago. They live for only about 15 years in the wild but using pot culture and tenderness i think they can far exceed that (don't know if i will tho :palm: ) anyhow, the bending I've done is just by hand then i brought the top down a bit with the wire, i don't feed it much, only osmacote. Don't know much about how it'll handle a root prune come early summer but it's a vigorous grower so should be sweet :fc Branches shoot from wherever there's a leaf so down the track if i decide to chop it anywhere I'll get a shoot, The branches at the base are just to help fatten up the trunk, or maybe kept,who knows, I'll see as it develops over the coming years

As always, all comments will be taken to heart, with a pinch of salt, washed down by a long neck :lol: 8-)
