A rather late in the week thread for discussing the wild, whacky and utterly mundane of life in our isolated corner of the planet.

    That was all one tree? Wtf!

    I only saw a Perentie at the Zoo in the last week. Cool lookin bastards! The one at the zoo was enjoying the last sunny spot in its enclosure.

      It was from 5 different plants.

      Half of it was from one big bastard on the back fence.

      My chainsaw gets here next week, then they are all getting further reduced to 2ft high.

        Chainsaw been on holiday in Texas or something ;) /j

        Better to do it in stages. My partner and i moved into a place that’d been a rental for 5 or so years. The amount of overgrowth was large. And, i’m not a big gardener, so its still pretty bad.

        I’ve slowly reduced the size of some Geraldton Waxes which has gone okay, like they survived, they’re still pretty sparse and woody though.
