Pierre, just remember, some trees don't have stories to tell. Sometimes you have to write it. Good start mate.

Come along to our meeting this Saturday - starts at 1.30. We have a very good speaker this week - Carole Waller from the Gold Coast. You could always get yourself another benji (or another kind of fig) and try a different approach on it such as growing on. I have a real soft spot for benjis but they seem to be the only fig I have that suffers from thrip - very badly at times. Just keep reading and asking - you have a whole new world to learn about :cool:
