Perth and Fremantle have the most magnificent Moreton Bay Figs. This is a true winter rainfall climate with hot dry summers and this species grows naturally in climates with summer rainfall or at least even rainfall across the year. So once again a member of the Ficus genus proves itself extremely plastic, bendy and fantastic metaphorically, literally and physiologically #ficusmacrophylla #moretonbayfig #urbanforestry #climatereadytrees #urbantrees #gianttrees #farawaytree #twistingroots #rootslikesnakes #growmoreplease

Unpack the pine cone to reveal the pine nuts and then crack them for the kernels. No wonder the cockatoos go crazy for these. ‘Pound’ the kernels to make ‘pesto’ (which is what pesto means in Italian) #pinenuts #pinecone #pinuspinea #cockatoofood #gymnosperm #plantmore #foraging #treecrops
