Delarbrea Micheana

2 responses

Brad starts with ... hi, there are some trees in a local park that are dropping heaps of bright blue fruit (small, about 2cm in diameter) each about the same size as a macadamia nut. from an online search it seems like the trees are probably Delarbrea Micheana, a QLD rainforest tree. can anybody suggest the best way of trying to grow trees from these fruits/berries - the trees are stunning. normally they are dispersed by medium-large birds like the cassowary. any advice appreciated - would be great to get these growing!
