Description
It pleases me no end to see that some farmers leave these beautiful grass trees standing. They grow so slowly that these have probably taken a couple of hundred years to get to this size and yet on new housing developments, they knock them down as though they were weeds.Related content

I appreciate that we each have our unique environments BUT there are times when I soooooooooo envy the island continent.

I can't tell you how grateful I am to have been able to choose Australia as my adopted country. I'm originally from UK.

They're amazing Eve...not seen anything like them. Can't say that I'm surprised by housing developer's attitude - the combination of ignorance and greed is even stronger in that sector of society than almost any other. imho of course. Sorry for the mini-rant.

You are very welcome to rant here. 
I was fascinated with the Australian bush plants from the moment we arrived here in 1971, and that fascination has never waned.
