Growing eucalypts and acacias where they were never meant to be grown is fraught with danger.

thankyou thankyou thankyou!!!

I miss the gum trees so much and I want to recreate my own little corner of Oz in my back garden (even got a furry kookaburra to hang in the tree ) (plus I qualifies as a floral artist in Oz and gum is one of my fave things to work with)

I have just bought a Gunnii for my garden but want to get hold of different varieites...just hope I can get the river red gum cos that's my favourite. I will check out that link asap

I never saw any when I lived there ....Mind you I was only living there for 3 months!
I think if I saw you coming I would keep out of sight too

My 6 year old is getting right into it, she loves anything remotely related to Aus.

The Wiggles are big here in the US too. My kids own all their DVD's.

Their songs are quite hummable, gotta admit.

Has Between the Lions made it to Australia, anyone know?
