[IBC] NZ Podocarpus
Thumbing through the 500-page Forest Farm Catalog (my resolution
to NOT acquire any new trees may not last long!) I run across Podocarpus totara from N.Z. The book says the trunk was once used for canoes up to 80 feet long, but it also says it makes a good hedge plant and has ONE INCH needles. Are any of you New Zealanders familiar with this one? There's also a dwarf Taxodium distichum (bald cypress) taken from a witch's broom that they say grows wider than tall. Hoping that my resolve lasts the weekend . . . ;-) Jim Lewis - - Tallahassee, FL - VEGETARIAN: An Indian word meaning "lousy hunter."
