hi all,
Take a look, I now have some of my collections of driftwood, in, my gallery.
The images are of A B C & D front view. and there are images of the back view of A B C & D.
They are all for sale & i have the sizes of all cmH & cmW.Most of them came from the roots of the stumps.
Large ones $10, Smaller $7. Just to get some idea to their size, Picture fnt vw C 10 is 80cmW x
40cm H taken at highest & widest points. Cheers Petra! ;)

The best Australian deadwood available is stored in the big white building on top of the hill in Canberra :lol: .

Talk about long lasting, some of it will never go away it seems.

Gday JayC!

I'm told that this is Jarrah. D'oh! Now I'm in cahoots with the hardware giant on the destruction of the Jarrah forests... :oops:

Very good, Grasshopper! I'm not 100% certain, but I expect that I can bury this lignotuber beneath the soil with no risk of killing it. :ugeek:

By the way, this stump came from Ted Poynton at Williams Nursery. He has quite a few for sale, some of which are real rippers. I was initially looking for deadwood to accommodate some of my Skyrocket Junis, but I reckon this stump needs an Oz native.

Thanks.

Fly.
