Hi all,
Just a piece of light relief but you must see no 4. I will pots it this evening.
What is your best guess of the pine I am pointing at? And no it is not a parrot on my shoulder.

It's too bad your in such a hurry cause the stories I could tell you, Bushels and baskets of stories, hole crates full of stories. But if you can spare a moment I will tell you one story.

Hey Grant,
Have no idea of the pine...the photographer was a bit far for identification. However with you striking that pose, standing on that rock, looking very authoritative. I'd follow you into the bush any day

Don't flay yourself mentally when you make a mistake or when something bad happens. Just pick yourself up from the god-awful mess you’ve made, say to yourself "I must make a note not to do that again." and go on to the next step, of the hundred or so that remain.

Re: Part 1 What Pine is this?
Definaetley a Radiata just from colour, pattern and profile as a young plant alone. 3 needles and its a clincher.
Lots to dig all around Australia but see if you can get seedlings under or near hundred year old trees rather than recent forestry as they are bred for no side branches.
