AusBonsai

Hi all Canberrans,

Can anyone tell me what type of pines are growing along the side of the road near the Narabundah Golf course, they are also prolific at the Queanbeyan golf course. I don't have a pic at the moment as I'm usually driving so it would be a bit dangerous, but if anyone actually knows the ones I'm talking about....Do they make good Bonsai? Easy/Hard to propogate? Etc, etc...

Im going to guess Radiata? Quite good for bonsai.

go get a book call street tree of canberra

I'm sure LLK would be able to answer this question straight away! My guess is radiata..they are everywhere in the inner city suberbs/golf courses of canberra it seems.

i know there's some stone pine around according to the book that i mention

possible if u can tell me the street name i might be able to search it in the book

note. the book is pretty old, if the area is really new. i might not be able to help
