E parvifolia

Post by Steven »

Here's an experimental Euc that I recently potted into a Mirkwood.
Can you guess the height of the tree?

Close... only 20% off. It's actually only 80mm from soil to top. The following pictures will give a better scale due to my tools being in the shots.

Nice start Steven!

I have LOTS of eucalypt seedlings popping up throughout my garden. There are several large trees around, but i dont know which one/s are germinating. Maybe i will attempt something like this.

P.S. I want the red balls in the soil!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well done Steven!

I just bought a Euc Melliodora that stands a bit taller than this one and I was thinking that I should wait a few years to fatten it up as I haven't seen a Euc that small. But after seeing this little (and I mean little) beginning I think I might just start styling.
I really do wish they'd hurry up and grow.
