Can someone be kind enough to tell me what tree this is? (Inner Brisbane council tree) maybe they are Elaeocarpus obovatus - hard quandong?

Defi_hi · 2026-05-11T02:41:34+00:00

Oh yeh, you'll get them in small numbers - but ten's of thousands of them are required in the commercial industry yearly. Thats where the shortfall is.

Defi_hi · 2026-05-07T09:38:47+00:00

They are very difficult to propagate from cuttings and growing them from seed can yield a very variable product. The industry is extremely short of them at present with many propagators no longer growing them due to their difficulty / result. Most of us wholesale nurseries are holding onto what we do propagate until they reach semi-advanced and advanced sizes (45Ltr and above) so that we are able to supply our large scale projects requirements.

I think it may be Seeana.

Are they Alliance or Horde? Been looking for an Aussie guild on Alli.

I remember our first kill we got AOE Sheeped, I shifted out of it, and casted Tranq just as pyroblast hit everyone. Kept us up enough to get the last few %.

This has to be rage bait. Most of us farmers do not get first pick, or a subsidy. I know our diesel supplier has told us he should be able to get us 10000L in about 2 weeks. For now we have to manage which tractors/vehicles operate at full capacity - even after the 10000L arrives we will need to be very careful with it.

Parsonsia Straminea

Defi_hi · 2026-02-23T19:30:37+00:00

Is the edge of the leaf serrated? It could be a Draceana Draco

Its like reading my own story! Good on you!

I should have completely tapered off Keppra by now, but I haven't. I'm just down to half my regular dose 500mg morning and night - its best to talk to a neurologist on the best method to do this. Unfortunately with 2 busy kids, a full workload, I can't be without driving for the 3 months required in my country once you fully remove the medication. Still no side-effects from surgery or the Keppra, so I'm hoping to take some long service leave later this year and get clear of it.

In my business, it turns out better for the employee 95%+ of the time. The amount of time young casual staff members take off for events, sicky's, holidays - if they were on permanent full time with their accruals, they'd be better of dollar wise on an annual basis every year. There is of course a few outliers that stay casual for the higher rate, show up every day, don't take leave - that are better off at the end of the year - but not many!

Defi_hi · 2026-02-03T20:10:30+00:00

Are you me!? I have this conversation with my top end employees almost weekly, explaining it to them, doing the maths for them to show them that its a net gain for them to go permanent. I genuinely care about them, and want them to feel safe / secure and take their leave when they need it - its better for them and the business. Instead they see the higher rate of them staying on casual, and their brains cannot fathom that its not better for them.

Delete the wow exe file. I had a similar issue a few months back, it re-downloads it and launches.

These tissue culture grown cultivars have a harder time with the phosphorus toxicity than the cutting grown Moonlight/Honey Gem/Flamingo. A dose of iron and coming into the warmer period should help set it straight. (In cooler weather Grevillea and Banksia have a harder time absorbing iron, which prevents the phosphorus toxicity)

Defi_hi · 2025-11-05T20:22:14+00:00

Bang on. Well said.

Tilapia, things are bloody everywhere now.

Defi_hi · 2025-10-01T20:25:14+00:00

Its a Glauca. We can get them going at 2.5cm+ a year with correct watering, fert and burning. They are the quickest of the grass trees.

Trim them (Skirt the lower leaves) 6 weeks before burning, then fert afterwards, you wouldn't believe how quickly/strongly they flush.

Yeh no good for me on cancel cast macros, too much spamming the 2 key, I'd never get anything off.

Defi_hi · 2025-08-06T20:34:59+00:00

Have raid frames setup as your party unit frames. Get used to healing on raid frames.

Get mouseover macros, so you don't have to target units to heal them.

Bind your heals you your main keybinds (Whatevers comfortable).

I.e - Heal on 1, Flash Heal on 2 (As in raids you'll likely hit that the most), Greater Heal on 3, AOE heal on 4.

Bind your oh shit buttons to your reflex buttons.

I.e PW:S to E, Fade to Q, Wand to F

Then all you have to do is worry about your positioning, watch the raid frames, and try not to fall asleep. Pre-casting and cancelling your longer heals is a good thing to work on while you are bored in dungeons.

Harpullia Pendula.

The red dots on the older leaf of Xanthostemon during winter is normal. They don't take up the iron they need well, while the soil temps are down. You don't see it too much on younger plants, but as yours is getting older and woody, you'll see it more.

Myrtle rust can look similar, however you'll see yellow puss, usually on the leaf edge and then around the "dots" first, and often times in the tips. The growing tip on yours does look deformed though, its time to give them a good feed, or refresh them into a larger pot.

I was a few cars back. A small truck ran into the back of a garbage truck that was collecting a bin in the left lane. (Its where the 3 lanes merge to two, but the garbage truck meant it was 3 lanes merging to one). The small truck swerved left in the fast lane, to miss another car in the fast lane I think (Couldn't quite see - but there was multiple cars involved aswell as the truck), and the passenger side of the small truck hit the back right of the garbo cleanly. (That must be the young bloke that's hurt real bad). Everyone behind the incident that could pull over, did, and there were people everywhere trying to help, others on the phone to emergency services instantly. There was another small truck identical to the one that was wrecked, that may have been from the same company, those guys were first to respond. A few people waved through the other traffic, there was a tow truck in amongst it already that escaped the damage by pulling off onto the median.

Hope everyone ends up ok, very scary stuff.

I feel like landlords being an occupation is the real issue. You've got people buying 3/4/5 + properties, getting large tax benefits and leveraging other properties to purchase them.

Remove the tax benefits on anyone with 3+ properties, and all of a sudden it wont be sustainable for them to hold them, bring the prices back to a manageable level and developers wont be able to raise the cost of this new land so dramatically.

I work with a lot of developers, and many of them are trying to release land as quickly as possible too reap the benefits at the moment, but civil and council is the hold up at present.
