[SOLVED] Unknown Native? Want to Collect

[Ryan1979b]

HI All,

After an expert opinion, I have attached some photos of a tree that I wish to collect. Not sure weather it is a Westringia or at Tee Trea but would love to know. Also if you have had any experience in collecting these, what is the likely success rate. The tree I have found seams to have some horizontal roots close to the surface, similar to the little one in the photo but will be a lot larger. But Iknow it will have a fairly large tap root which will have to be chopped. its going to be a Literati Style as the tree has som very nice scares and natural bends in the trunk.

Anyway photos of the luttle sample species for identification.

Cheers Jamie,

Do you know if they react well to be Dug up/Relocated at all?

hi mate,

I had a couple at my old place that were pretty massive, I took to them with a chainsaw to get them down and a little more managable so I could use my ride on mower, they were covering the grass to much. it bounced back quickly from that and was in full foliage around a month and a half to two months.

I think aslong as you get some good roots with it you would be fine, westringia are tough trees.




Solved---rosemary.
