RE: Buckinghamia - The ivory Curl Flower.

in #buckinghamia7 years ago

great post @ctrl-alt-nwo I very like writing your article

Originally from the tropical rainforests of eastern Queensland they are surprisingly adaptable and will even grow in areas with light frosts provided they are in a sheltered position.

Ivory curl trees can tolerate a wide range of soils but will benefit from good drainage with plenty of organic matter mixed in. The richer the soil the faster the growth. Plant in full sun to part shade and maintain moisture levels until well established. After this they are quite dry tolerant.

Actual tree height will be determined by your climate. In warmer regions they reach 6 to 8 metres (or even higher) but as the temperature drops, so does the height of the tree. This means in places like Sydney or Melbourne the ivory curl tree is more of a large shrub than a real tree.

Thank you @ctrl-alt-nwo for sharing
