This Casuarina is one of a few I've grown from tubestock from our local Landcare. Equisetifolia seems to be the one that grows the best for me. I like some of the literati style trees, especially when they get a bit older with that rough bark that seems to contrast with some of the graceful lines of a literati. This one has a long way to yet, but I have a vision.
Cheers,
Dave.
