As you are all aware we have been having a lot of rain lately. Lives have been lost and property damaged. Here's an idea of how much rain we have had. I put this layer on a benji Christmas eve . . . . .
I have never had an air layer put out roots into the air like that. All my figs are putting aerial roots on like mad.
Hopefully the coming floods will be less than expected and there will be no more loss of life.

Re: A little bit wet here in Brisbane
I'm watching the news and feeling for you up there. I hope the flooding doesn't get as bad as predicted.
BTW, interesting layer.
BTW, interesting layer.

All difficult things have their origin in that which is easy, and great things in that which is small.

I have a 30ft yacht, an apartment and a new BMW motorbike right on the river. I'm in Sydney, bugger.
