Yes,Jamie!
They are all in pretty bad condition ( sick,pests infested,neglected) but doesn't matter, I'll take good care of them!
I'm very much interested in Ausie natives.

Nice scores Thuy, Looks like you are going to have some fun carving with the tree in the first pic. I'm sure that you will be careful with the tools :)
Cheers,
DK
Always we hope someone else has the answer.
Bonsai is an art of shrinking.

Hi,guys!
Today, the RailCorp workers are starting to clear the site. I just happened to be passing by and saw the gate open,so came in and help those guys removed 5 decent trunk trees (into my car boot, ofcourse! :) )
There are still heaps of trees( huge ones) lying around or grown into the ground. Figs,natives,junipers,...
If anyone interested should come and check it out- before they turn into mulches :(
...yum yum! cheers.

Take a trip in the country down to Mittagong/Colo Vale and visit Warriapendi Native Nursery.
