Any chance that drumstick trees would grow on the south coast of nsw? I guess Canberra would be out of the question?

TRY BOAB
I tried to grow Moringas but they always died here in Melbourne. I think it would be even harder in Canberra.
How about trying an African Boab? It's easy to grow in Melbourne and is widely used as a food source in Africa.

That's a beautiful tree, how is it doing now, 6 years later? Do you have some new photos?

I grew one very well here in Bunbury, outside - to 2m. We only get very light dustings of frost 1 or 2 times in winter though. It was totally deciduous in winter and I didn't get drumsticks because it flowered too late in the season for them to form before it went deciduous.
I grew it against a brick wall in a north facing garden - where I grow our bananas and other warmth loving sub tropicals. It seemed to like the rich soil in there also.
I gave it away in the end...not really worth it in my warm-temperate/mediterranean climate.
