I see your psychic vision, and raise you a Casuarina!
The bets are on.

My first guess, but then I thought it seemed too easy! Clearly there must be more to it.DustyRusty wrote:Yep Pinus Radiata I'm 100% certain. Come on mods call it as solved already.

Re: id pretty please.
I think those needles are too long for radiata and the bark is not right for a casuarina. Tamarix is possibe though Sno.

I think we have an Unidentified Growing Object. It probably hitched a ride on an asteroid and crash landed near the railway line. Based off this new evidence, I am changing my guess to Moonus Pine
Bugger I missed those but I still think your wrong, the flowers not right for Moonus Pinus...

Re: id pretty please.
Jade, just bear one thing in mind. This is an internet forum, and you know what they say about the internet!!!! It's full of incorrect information and fools who think they know what they are talking about, and are willing to mislead people. So, with that in mind, I'd strongly suggest you ignore all these childish people and listen to me because I know what I'm talking about. The plants you have found are Baobabs. They are particularly common along rail-roads where they eat any passengers that fall from the carriages. This of course means that when you plant them for bonsai, they do require a highly organic mix, and do well with a regular feed of bone and bloodmeal. It is highly recommended that you keep away from them when they have just flowered.
Warm Regards,
Andrew
