Judith: Peaches are self fertile so plant it wherever you like, preferably in a sunny location with well drained soil. Just for consideration of tree size and pruning, 15-20 ft apart if you have lots of room. But they can be closer if you are short on space. The Fruitnut

The landscaper put many bouganvillas and other vines on walls here, and they are all about 8-10" from the walls. They put wires across the plants and train them between the wires and the wall. They bloom like crazy, so I'd think grapevines would work well that way also as long as there is sunshine!

orchidlily, I know of its effect on a banana farm. It causes the banana fruits to ripen in geometric proportions. However, here might be some information that you can use.

Hi again, yes you're quite right..Cela-n-dine is our native cute little yellow plant you refer to, but CELA-DINE is a common, but non the less lovely plumeria variety with a very nice fragrance. It is also more cold tolerant than some of the more exotic types,....(one of the many facts I have learnt from here). After several sets of mini leaves coming and dying off and minute root growth, I eventually got it to get going in the greenhouse by placing a cut off lemonade bottle over it to create a mini greenhouse. Once it had rooted enough it put out leaves and also a flower stalk. Have attached a photo to show you what it was like. It is currently housed in the living room and has now dropped all growth and gone dormant. Where did you live in Oz? We have rellies just south of Freo and have visited them a couple of times, thats where I saw my first plumie and got my aunt to send some cuttings from a neighbour who had 'demolished'' a huge tree in her garden. Only one of the 6 cuttings survived, I lost the others to stem rot before I joined this forum and learnt better! Catch you again maybe? Regards, Greenclaws
