Hi all,
I have been offered a beaut black pine to add to my collection but being time rich & $$ poor i have to put a couple of trees up for sale to be able to get it. I really want this pine!

Cedrus atlantica as acquired (from same source as the multi trunk i posted about) it is in a 12" pot has about 5 trunks and great potential for someone with the right skills. Asking the same as I paid for it $80. The foliage is very yellow not sure of the reason for this, the other is similar, it has started to back bud like mad since being butchered. It could be iron deficient or it could just be these trees natural colour. They were from seed stock & estimated age of approx 10-15yrs old.

Swaynes golden cypress, this was dug 3yrs ago & is approx 20yrs old now. It was sold to a local club member 2yrs ago but found its way back to me when their health started making life difficult. It was repotted spring '09 and has made considerable regrowth from the state it was returned in. Height is 90cm to top of foliage & 110 to top of deadwood, trunk is approx 6" across at front. Asking $250.

I am located in newcastle and can arrange transport to sydney, central coast, north coast if anyone there is interested, otherwise its pickup or let me know how to post/courier.

Hope these go to homes soon i really dont want to miss out on this JBP.
Thanks
Matt

Good to know that in OZ we can sell excess trees and have a healthy market for Bonsai.

BUMP

The golden cypress (Cupressus sempervirens 'Swane's Golden") is still up for grabs if anyone is interested, can move on price as i have managed to sort funds for the pine. I would like to see it gone, one more exotic out of the way.
