Podocarpus elatus $140/1000 seeds
Common Name: Plum Pine
Endemic to New South Wales and south Queensland coastal and subtropical rainforests, growing to 40 m tall. Fire tolerant and suitable to coastal/salty situations, Podocarpus elatus is a traditional food source, the fleshy, round stem is edible. The seed is attached to the stem rather than being found within the fruity flesh.
Ravenala madagascariensis $69.50/1000 seeds
Common Name: Travellers Palm
A native to Madagascar and member of the Strelitziacea family, Ravenala madagascariensis is not a true palm. The name Travellers Palm may come from the tendancy of the leaf fan to grow east/west, as a makeshift compass. Growing to 7 m to 30 m tall, it bears large white flowers that when pollinated produce bright blue seeds.
Eucalyptus neglecta $33.50/25 g
Common Name: Omeo Gum
A rare, small/medium evergreen mallee growing to 7 m tall, endemic to Victoria. Blue/green foliage with white flowers December to February.
To customers in colder climates: Eucalyptus neglecta is a remarkable species, thriving in heavy snow as well as it does in hot summer conditions. The juvenile foliage is worthy of cut foliage trade.
