you can message me with what you are after and we can make some kind of deal :) - mainly after medium to larger models of Banksia.
cheers..

Not sure about the swap, but maybe reach out to @shibui on this forum and see if he has any larger ones for sale? I can highly recommend him as a good guy to deal with

I concur. My best Banksia specimens came from Bonsai World :beer: The guys out there have awesome material for Banksia marginata and integrifolia.

Though I've never been to Shibuis, I'm sure he would have great stock too.
