I kinda hoped that would be the case, being that casuarinas are riverine
trees and suffer inundantion and changing soil depths all the time. I
hope there's someone out there who's actually done something like this?
It'd feel a lot better knowing someone had been successful with it,
y'know?


Well, we had one in the back garden that a bit taller and it hasn't
suffered one little bit from the 1' of raised vege garden bed running
across half its root zone. Those roots grew just nicely. Now all I need
is a good recipe for them {:-).
