Hobart botanical gardens gifted plants


Recommended Posts

With some logistical arrangements and the kind work of @palmtreesforpleasure Mr Colin Wilson. He has arranged for some plants to be sent to Tasmania. So iam kindly donating some Arenga engleri, a jubea chiliensis and some lepidozamia peroffskyana. This is all I can think of at the moment thay will survive the winter freezer in Tasmania. I have also placed in box some gifted plants to @Jonathan his holy grail palms 2 calmus muellerii and 3 black petiole baronii. These will go into his garden. So good luck to all involved in making it possible for the botanical gardens in Tasmania to get a few plants into there gardens. Oh and Jonathan who better not kill the baronii in Siberia!

Awesome Richard, I'll plant the Calamus as barrier to keep the polar bears out!  

Pretty stoked to be getting the Dypsis black petiole, hopefully a good chance down here.

Thanks Mr @happypalms.

I also recently received a gift of a bag of C decipiens seeds from Richard, via your good self I believe Harry, so thank you kindly as well! Palm cultivation in Tasmania is taking a great leap forward...if all goes well!

You’re welcome, enjoy. I thought you had polar bears because all Tasmanian tigers got eaten by the polar bears. Did they migrate there on an iceberg? 
look after those baronii there a wanted palm! 
The palm police will be expecting a written report on the baronii!

You’re the captain of the ship in Tasmania, steer it well and the future of palms will be great for many generations to come!
