euodia danielli

[Jburkey]

Anyone know where i might be able to find some euodia danielli(bee bee tree) plants? Seems to be popular with many overseas beekeepers but hard to find down here.

[Acebird]

I give up.  Where's down here?

" Down under"  is Australia.

I don't think you can find trees in Australia - maybe seed.
Watch out - could be next weed!!

[BeeMaster2]

Not necessarily, in th south of the USA we also call it down here.

But this is the " down under" forum:) - the REAL Down Under. Not the Down South Down Under

" Down under"  is Australia.

All of Australia has one climate?  The small islands of Hawaii have 11 out of the 13 climate zones.  I haven't been to Australia but there must be more than one climate zone.

WOWZA! thanks guys. Didn't think i needed to explain that i was in Australia on a down under forum page.
Thanks max2. Yeah I've heard it could possibly become weedy.

Think Acebirds comments are due to a lack of location in your profile, location does make a difference to the replies you will get to any questions you ask.

Acebird the USA style climate maps are rarely used in AUS, all of Aus falls into zones 7-13 and probably 95% in zones 8-11, zones 9-10 cover around 80% of the country and probably over 90% of the population so as far as many are concerned there is only one climate zone.

Hi Brian,

Australia is the only continent with ALL climate zones.

We have the wet Tropics up North  and go right down to Alpine in Tasmania and parts of NSW.

You need to visit!!

Few people realize that OZ has more land under snow ( in winter) then Switzerland.

    Just a bit of refinement, here in Gippsland, Victoria, Australia it is not an unusual occurrence to have 4 climates in the one day let alone the different seasons. Hot dry summers and dry cold winters combined with all the other variations. These deep thoughts have just been inspired by the thunder booming in my ears right now and the beautiful autumn rain belting onto the window next to me.

Pardon my ignorance but is Australia a continent and a country?  It just seems to me that with such a land mass surrounded by a whole lot of water there would be different things happening in different areas.
I would love to visit.  I am told the woman have nice hooters.  LOL

[Geoff]

Australia is both a country and a continent Acebird, as for the last comment you had better come and judge for yourself. Make it to Melbourne and you have got a bed. Airfares Melbourne to LA available at the moment for AU $1000 return.

[Acebird]

I am on the east coast.  Is it still shorter to go over LA?

[max2]

Brian - unlike in the US you don't have to take your shoes off at our airports but talking about " hooters"  will get you into hot water...or 6 moths in jails...or both. And I'm not joking.

[Acebird]

No kidding?  Certainly not what is portrayed about the country here.  I have heard it as what use to be the wild wild west in this country many years ago.  If I have offended you please accept my apologies.

[max2]

Brian - no kidding. Some of our roads are now sealed, many towns now have electricity, even phones.

OK, our internet connection is slower then Cambodia and many of us are living in mud houses.

We are quite modern here - you have to leave your gun at home.

I don't know about that I still have unsealed road to the farm, had no electricity this morning when I got up and had to revert to boiling the jug on gas to make a cuppa and our landline hasn't worked for nearly 2 years although my internet is quite good.

Given how generous our deer seasons are (6-12months) for most species it might be worth bringing a rifle, not overly difficult to bring them in and out just a bit of paperwork to do.

[Acebird]

I wasn't saying anything about being modern.  There are areas of this country without power.  Really, I didn't mean any disrespect.

Follow the link below to a map that give a better view of climate in Australia.

Also Australia is just about the same size as continental USA. Just lookup Australia overlaid on USA

[Acebird]

Looks to be quite a bit of variation.
