Eucalyptus websteriana, common name Heart Leaved Mallee

Seeds from Australian Seed over in WA.

I've tried growing this one from seed a few times, with seeds from eBay. I usually have a very poor germination rate - maybe 1 or 2 seedlings will pop from a pack of 50 seeds, then the possums will devour the seedlings if I'm not quick enough.

Hoping that seeds from a reputable pace have a better germination rate and my possum proof seedling cover is up to the task

I've ordered 2 packets of seeds, first one will go into the new Bunnings seed raising 'green house' in the next couple of days, other pack is a backup which I'll sow early spring if it's too cold now

The obligatory pic of the bunnings $10 sed raising greenhouse tray thingy, with 1 packet of seeds planted.

Fingers crossed 🤞
