I thought this was interesting so I'm sharing it.

Battle to save endangered eucalypts

You don't hear much about endangered plants. Also I think some people think of eucalypts as being just one type of tree whereas there hundreds of species across 2 or 3 genus. (The red gum often seen in gardens is Corymbia something.)

Morrisbys gums have a particularly limited range. You know something has a limited range when it's described as "at the intersection of Road A and Road B".

(Went to change my userpic but I think my default is the best match.)

Stick

This is my blue gum in April. I grew it from a seed and it's about 3.5 years old. It got a bit overgrown and went spindly. It's quite tall though. Taller than me when it's standing up straight, but as it's too tall for its pot, it leans over.



I put it up here on the porch so I'd remember to repot it.



This is in May, after all its leaves fell off. I think the cold hit it or something. Now its a stick :(
