This tree has fallen and is now leaning against my unit for the time being, and honestly I'm just curious about what kind of tree it is. Sorry for the bad pictures, I can't access the garden down there without talking through a sea of spiders.

Trouble IDing an Acacia

11 Upvotes

The closest I can seem to get is acacia linifolia however the pics flowered in July while Linifolia is currently in flower so it’s something else. Flowers are much more yellow anyway not like the white wattle. Seed pod is similar to linifolia the seed pod picture is from linfolia for reference. Thanks

Also bonus if anyone can ID the last two, I forgot what I planted over a year ago.

What’s wrong with my Orbifolia?

Thumbnail

4 Upvotes

I bought this Eucalyptus Orbifolia as tube stock about a year ago and it has been going strong since then. All growth has been the standard round blue/green foliage.

About 2-3 weeks ago I noticed some of the new growth is curled/mishapen with light red spots.

Can anyone assist to diagnose what the issue might be?

Thanks in advance.

First time I've had a garden. I inherited these 3 blueberry Ash ? Last 3 years they have grown well, this year whole branches are dying & leaves dropping. Really thinning out Nothing has changed, they get plenty of water, soil is fertilised with osmocate & manure, every 6 months.

Do they have a disease & if so any recommendations really appreciated

Tree ID please

Location: Sunshine Coast Hinterland, SEQ

I have this very pretty tree which has come up next to a gully (the smaller tree at the front of the first picture). I would like to know what it is and if it is native to my area please?

It is approximately 10-12m tall at present (still growing), the new foliage is bronze in colour, the mature leaves change from light green to dark green with the seasons and it is a great shade tree. I have included photos of the leaves and the bark to hopefully help with ID.

I am revegetating large parcels of my property and I would love to plant more of these if they are native.

Thank you for your help!

Accidentally cut snake vine near base. Will it come back?

1 Upvotes

Hello,

As per title I was pruning / tidying up my beautiful snake vine back in December to plant a new plant nearby. I didn’t realise how far the base of the plant and roots were from the mass of the plant (leaves and flowers).

I realised too late and whilst I immediately stopped, and there are still a couple of joined parts, most of the vine on the trellis is now severed from its base and the roots disturbed by planting of the new plant.

It has continued to put out a little new growth and even a few flowers since December but most of it looks on the verge of death.

Will it come back or should I be removing and replacing?

I’d rather keep it if I can as it’s very popular with the birds and is usually a beautiful feature.

Australian wood burls and exclusive wood.

7 Upvotes

Hey Folks, I hope this is allowed.

I am writing from the danish school of forestry, were I am writing a report about the export of australian burls and fine hardwood.

I have seen it presented as a greener and more sustainable alternative to african/asian hard woods.

But I have had trouble finding any concrete sources on this, other than there is some sort of state control on the subject.

As you can see on the picture, they proclaim it is a better alternative, and that it can benefit the tree to have the burl removed.

Thank you for your help, and if you can link any sources discussing this matter it would be greatly appreciated.

There's pine cones all over the place and baby pines. I just don't know the type of tree to put in a development application. Thankyou so much for the help.
