Beverly,
Read with great interest your statement that "Geraldton Wax can
become quite a weed here too, although it is native to the area! Have
you tried smokey water to help the seeds germinate?"
Would you please elaborate on exactly how this is done? At what point
do you know the seed is ripe and ready for collection? Also, are
cuttings difficult to root?
I am curious as to why I never see this offered by nurseries here - I
can get Leptospermum cultivars, many species of Proteas, Leucodendrons,
but no waxflowers....
Best,
