Dwarf Kerrawang

18 years ago

Well i am very excited abouttheis grand find in my local fauna reserve!!!! I was resently on a stroll with an number of people from the local "walking for want" grp and two of us diverted from the normal path and enter into some dense bushland. As we returned to the grp we saw what i beleive to be the rare Dwarf Kerrawang flower (Rulingia prostrata)I was just wondering if anyone else in the Peninsula area had had a simular discovery?

Thanks for you time...

    Harold, what a spectacular find.

    Not to be specific, but, would this be up from the Gunnamatta National Park. Just before the T-Junction at harrows farm?

    Bern... a little too spacific, if you get my drift :M)

    But yes that's the location. I take it that you have seen that same group of Dwarfs. They are a terrific specamin arent they. I just hope noone takes them before i get a chance to returne and take some grafts!

    Love

    I hope no one grafts them, so they don't die Harold.

    Did you touch the aforementioned flower. They are delicate, and such are an item of beauty to be observed.

    Sorry Bern....i can't agree. That would be like saying that people shouldn't remove endangered animals from the wild. Imagine a world where we simply said "Stop! don't take that Orangutan from the wild!" and then the ones in the wild died....yes that right...NO MORE Orangutan!!!

    I simply want to help by taking a small cutting of the before mentioned Rulingia prostrata. I can then perform a 'Cleft Graft' this is, in my opinion, a great option.

    Harold, you remind me of someone I know, my grandson jack. He is still young and learning, and still wets his bed. Alas he has the brain of a developing child. I appreciated your thoughts, but im still looking out the window.

    I just got back from an adventure with quite the tale. I will post it for your viewing pleasure soon.

    In the meantime, keep dreaming Harold. May we all land amongst the stars.

    Well i never!!... i am sure i donÂt appreciate your comments this time Bern. I am simply wanting to share with the group this rare and beautiful find and i am being met with resistance and dare i say it...yes id do! impolite rebuttals. These are a very and delicate species of flower and I am simply wanting to assist nature, where I can. I want my grandchildren and their grandchildren to live in a world of Dwarfs. DonÂt you want your grandson to live with Dwarfs? I am guessing you do B!!!

    My equipment is perfect for dealing with dwarfs and with my knowledge and years of experience I am sure I will have the finest specimens imaginable!!

    Anyway, let bygones be bygones and lets agree to disagree.

    I very much look forward to hearing about you recent adventure B! I am sure it will be quite a tale : L . I do however believe you should start a new post as pople may wish to read and post more about the dwarfs : K

    PS. If anyone is interested I am thinking about placing a diary ofd my dwarf experience here. I.e. Day 1 Â GraftÂÂ.
