I bought a little Wolly sapling about 25cm tall from a nursery during early winter as a gardening experiment, and now approaching mid spring it's erupting with new light green growth from every tip and has more than doubled in size. It takes pride of place in the middle of my front yard garden microclimate. I'm hoping I'm in an isolated enough area that phytophthora doesn't get here and knock it out.
I've tried several times here to grow them but unfortunately phytopthera is a common pathogen here and none survived for long. Other araucariaceae are just about OK, but I do still loose the occasional one. Araucaria angustifolia oddly enough seems to be fairly resistant.
Why did Australia send and sell the trees to UK? Why not the world? 😮 Come on. Where do I buy a wollemi tree or seeds? Can you shipping it to the USA? Thanks
beautifully made piece

True survivor!

Given the size, diversity and estimated age of Far North Queensland's rainforests, I wonder how many other "green dinosaurs" are waiting to be found?
