Fatenhappy starts with ... Hi .... We live on the canals at Bribie Island SEQ and are just about to start a large 6m square deck at the rear of the house that will be probably 5 meters from the rear of the home Itself. I am wanting to grow a tree right through the decking itself from the ground that will be underneath. I should imagine we will creat a large mound immediately under a section of the deck to facility the trees requirements. I have been trying to narrow down a canopy tree 15 plus metres that we could use and then thought of a grafted mango. I would appreciate your thought or for that matter or alternatives that you would consider suitable ....

M Nash says... Great question, I used to build decks and always wanted a customer to request that. I know that a Black bean will grow well by the canal. Your looking for interesting bark and a non white sap tree (Mango is sappy) Lychee? Pecan? Neem? Some trees spred naturaly and some you will need to crown to get the spred. Good luck, Im sure others will have there thoughts. | About the Author MNash1 29th July 2012 5:14pm #UserID: 2892 Posts: 292 View All MNash1's Edible Fruit Trees |

amanda says... Native frangipani...hmnn..beautifully shaped tree and the smell of the flowers are divine..! I also think my kwai muk (Artocarpus) is a very handsome naturally shaped tree too...very dark bark and deep green odd shaped leaves... Poinciana is another with a beautiful canopy - but it is deciduous... | About the Author amanda19 Geraldton. 400km north of Perth. 30th July 2012 11:02am #UserID: 2309 Posts: 4607 View All amanda19's Edible Fruit Trees |
