Mark collected the seed specifically from ancient trees, far older than the colonial days of Western Australia's first settlement in Albany in 1826. Why? Just because I love the notion. Mark was keen to take on this project, as he is a prolific bushland regenerator with deep knowledge of trees. (See Home page).
Here's a postcard-sized painting of Tuart inflorescence worked last summer when the Tuarts, these forest giants had an unusually heavy flowering season. This painting is now in a private collection.
During my exhibition you see, these little time-travellers will be ceremoniously planted. Let me know if you'd like to help me plant them?
