Yes I bought one but it died. Don't know why, I had it in a pot.
A lovely tree, slow growing. I think my son may have one growing, I will have to check on it. It has an oak type leaf, It is one I have been thinking about, the rainforest nursery near Murwillumbah sells it as well. Tea plant sounds interesting, is it the same as Sencha tea?
Do you have a plum myrtle growing Mary-Ann.
very common around the Atherton tablelands but Col says they grew them as a child ( Millaa Millaa) but never knew anyone who ate them... Forbidden fruit has them and I have ordered one to be picked up at the BOGI fair along with a vanilla orchid and a Sayama Kaori tea plant !
Neither! Nor have I heard of it before now! Does the Witjuti Grub Nursery stock it?

Vetiver grass helps to stabilise soil and protects it against erosion. It can protect against pests and weeds. Vetiver is also used as animal feed. (Wiki.)
GrowVetiver is a plant nursery run by Dave & Keir Riley that harvests and grows Vetiver grass for local community applications and use. It is based in Beachmere, just north of Brisbane, Australia.
