Yes, the New Caledonian species growing at Sydney BG is just amazing. For our International visitors (when they ever come back) if you are on the east coast and anywhere near Sydney make sure you visit the botanic garden there. It's special.

I have put it to the list when I finally make the trip.   So many things to see and places to go on your continent but I would get in trouble if I went and didn't stop in to see a friend that lives nearby in Avalon Beach.  So I will be very close by the Sydney BG and my wife is used to including botanical gardens on vacations.  Thank you for the recommendation Tyrone!

Anyone who marvels at the palm collection of Royal Botanic Garden, Sydney owes a big debt of gratitude to Colin Wilson.   :greenthumb: 

And that he has, and more recently at Wollongong botanical gardens. We call him Sir Colin Wilson now :D

Yes, very true. I met Colin there once about a decade ago when Steve Bartlett was working there. It was a great visit.
