Welcome to Treeworld John

Gee mate your garden sure looks lush at the moment.
We haven't had any rain here since mid December, and everything is looking dry and desperate.

Good luck with your Magnolia.

You're not wrong Sean, i especialy love fruit trees that have been "Espaliered"


Nice pics of John Poole's trees, the "Rare Fruit Society" have quite a cult following here in Adelaide.
They have a regular spot on "Michael Keelan's Weekend", which is one of radio's top rating gardening shows.

The program is broadcast on 5AA radio, it's on every weekend from 6am-10am (AustCentTime), you can listen in live (and for free) by following the link at the top of their homepage.
(they also have a great sports show, weekdays 4pm-7pm)
