Frangipani Grove

Yes...that's a good point Gail. Not sure I will wander around another...but then again Kerrie (not an avid gardener) enjoyed the time out - so maybe we will. Who knows. To each there own.

I've got seed pods on my Singapore "Petite Pink". It may have crossed with a tree of my neighbours, so the outcome will be interesting. I don't really want them so if anyone would like me to save them give me a yell.
I've also got a potted seedling, that came up under the neighours tree, that needs a home. It's getting big and I really don't have anywhere to put it.

Mine.


The neighbour's.

Cheryl, I would be happy to take the seeds and grow them up here. I am happy to keep one and then pass the rest on to folk.

Postage of plants may be a challenge though I would think.

Any ideas?

Well for a start it was me not Cheryl.

I dont find posting seedlings a problem at all, plenty of throw away plastic food containers out there in the weekly shopping that would easy fit into a 500gm prepaid satchel 355x220mm $5.50 Australia Wide if you grow them in tubes and post them off when they are small say 15-cms as long as they have roots on them, any spaces in the plastic food container fill up with newspaper so there will be no movement, if you cannot get a food container with a matching lid wrap around with glad wrap or a plastic bag and Tape up pop into the prepaid satchel and post...

The frangipanis I have to give away are probably close to a metre tall. That is guessing as I sit in my study and have not looked at them for a couple of weeks. Probably left them there too long. Have given a few away though and promised another the other day. Oh well.

Frangipani are as tough as old boots and will survive as sticks sitting on top of the garden for many months especially during the cooler months.
