Australian Native Plants
Oct 25th, 2020 at 6:11pm
 
I'm interested in some rare gondwanic older native species of Australian plants. Know my Wollemi. Anyone know of any others? I just thought it would be more appropriate to post this Topic here in Environment, rather than Cats & Critters 'culturally appropriating' Plants as well.

I know nothing about this subject but I like a good old gnarled Banksia tree and I applaud your decision to post the topic here.

I knew this tree, planted it in my garden but it was never happy and gave up the ghost after just a few years. Nice tree and definitely Gondwanan.

Anyway, as we were saying. Yes Gordo, I like Banksias. I enjoy the Gondwanic species from both Sahul lands and New Zealand. Not too knowledgable about the South American and South African species.

Quote:
Gingko trees are deciduous, hardy shade trees with unique fan-shaped leaves which are linked to a primitive family of trees commonly found 160 million years ago in China. Considered to be the world’s oldest living species of tree, geological evidence of ginkgos have been dated to the Mesozoic era, some 200 million years ago! Ginkgo trees are planted around temple sites in Japan and considered to be sacred. These trees produce an herbal product popular around the world, most specifically in Asian cultures.

Ahh yes. Very beautiful even if they remind me of bloodthirsty 'triffids'.  Grin

Very popular those plants. Definitely don't look Chinese.  Grin
