Thanks for the information! I love casuarinas even if it's a non native tree in many countries it does a fanastic job keeping the soil with vegeral material on the surface, fixing nitrogen through the roots and stabilizing from the erosion. Also casuarinas are fantastic wind falls to stops heavy winds thanks to a very deep root system. In my countrt there is a lot of pines but they are much likely to fall with heavy winds and they acidify soils. I love both but most people hate casurinas not knowing the are fantactic if you use them in the right places.
My mum had one of these which is now extremely fru and dead looking.. I'm just wondering if it is still save-able.. Is there any way to tell? Thank you!
Great presentation on the Cauarina plant, including the origins of the name.
Good explanation
Thanks, much appreciated!

No really I'm afraid. If it's looking dead, that's probably because it's time has come!
A great way to save plants is pruning. I have seen dead looking casuarinas come back to life after heavy pruning.
As a fellow plant nerd I can verify that our stories are indeed not very impressive at parties... 😂😂😂😅😂😂😂😂😢
A sad reality!
