Yamadori Mel

Post by benny350 »

I've been told many times that we don't have yamadori in Aus, they mustn't have been looking hard enough. I collected this last night after spotting it on a walk, I know its a bit late to be digging but I couldn't pass this up. It had a very compact rootball with lots of fine feeders which I was very happy with.

The height will need to be compacted down eventually, it stands about chest height now but I'm more than happy to let it sit and stabilize for a couple of years before any work is done.
