Does this tree grow in the UK?
Anyone growing one or know of a specimen that has survived outside, i.e..
not in a large greenhouse?
Any information on it's hardiness etc from those with experience of it
gratefully received.


My uncle brought a few tiny saplings back from Australia and planted
them on his farm in West Yorkshire. They definitely survived for years
the last time I went there but we have all moved away now so I don't
know if they are still alive.
