to right mate :D shohin size trees can be very rewarding :D i am cautious on privet although i like them i dont have any as i dont want to get attached to a tree that will succumb to a root fungus that slowly kills them, whether that is present just in queensland i am not sure, i know brian inglis had some excellent privet that died due to this and i am pretty sure that it happened to the lot of his :shock:

I did here about that happening and I hope it dosnt happen down here :? But i havnt heard of anyone around the central coast having that problem. I just like them because they grow fast and ramify well with small leaves. I think my mini died because it was in such a small pot and was in the sun too long and just dropped it i suppose, gotta watch the sun on them as they dry out really quick.

banyan style is a low spreading wide tree, it generally has airial roots coming from trunk and low hanging branches. there are a few realy good ones on here, shannons one of the best. if you search it out you will see what i mean. if you cant let me know and i will find it!
