Yeah. Nice day as it's only 200m from my house. Walked to site and back with the dog.

looks in the photos like there really wasn't much internally, always difficult to get it right when they are so internally shaded like that. would be interested to see how it responds being so close to your house:thumbup1:

Easy to mark? did you need/use a cambium saver?

 

Do the seeds need any treatment before germination?

 

Good luck with it, Bonsai Boab will be way cool

I climbed srt on the rope.wrench but it didn't damage the bark climbing normally. It's tough enough to stand up to the hot sun so I doubt a rope would do much harm.

 

I did lighty grill then sand some seeds a few years back. just trying a few now by dropping them in a glass of water until they crack. Not sure what to.do.

maybe crack the seed shell first then discard any that float after a few hours or so in the water.
