Absolutely fantastic!
This is so good!!!
Fantastic video! Just be careful when separating the seed. The seed separators can be confusing for people who may be collecting banksia seed for the first time. The actual seeds have a papery wing attached, whereas the separators are the woody dividers. So for example; you can see the difference between the first one put into the smoke water and the second. The first is a seed but the second is a separator which can be thrown away. Great video for people looking to extract their own banksia seed!
A great point to mention! Thanks for that. Luckily I was able to distinguish what was what after a closer look, but I definitely didn't mention your tip in the video. Cheers!
@@planterbanter you're very welcome. And thank you for making such a great video! It will certainly help people who are interested in propagating this fantastic Aussie native plant from seed.
@@ThrisnospoonMate thank you!!! I've just been scouring the internet trying to find out this info for my Serrata seeds!!
Awesome video Lorie! Love Banksia’s one of my favourite native’s 👍
Hey Misso Madness!!! Thank you very much, glad there's a few out there that enjoy the videos. Banksia are definitely one of my favourite genus too, sooo many species in there that greatly vary. P.S *Lawrie ;)
Great channel, keep it coming
Hey Brian, thanks legend. Sorry for the slow response. I'm glad you enjoyed the video mate, lots more to come :)
I really enjoy your videos, especially the giant sequoia ones! Hoping for an update :D will definitely subscribe
Hi there GoHazard! I’m really glad you enjoy them. I have 4/5 videos done and coming soon!! One of them is a giant Sequoia update :) thanks for the sub 🙏🏽
I have released some new giant sequoia videos over the last couple of week, and a third coming out in the next week in case you’re interested. I remembered ur comment :P
So awesome! I’m exited to see more of them!
Thanks Blue's Bonsai. It was a fun video for sure, thanks for popping in mate :) I just checked out your channel and subbed
such a good vid mate, well done!
This is so cool
I’m glad you thought so :)
The nature is so interesting 🌱
It is extremely interesting and a privilege to continue learning all these things
Gotta be a banksia serrata. I got one to. That one must be years old looking at that bark/trunk. Mine has not flowered yet. About 4 years old.
That’ll look amazing in a few more years time. It should start flowering soon. I agree, banksia serrata. I travelled up the east coast of Australia and spotted a lot more on the coastline compared to in South Australia, although the wild individuals didn’t have such light/sandy coloured bark.
Amazing. You’ll have to let us know how they germinate😀
For sure!!
Hi, amazing process! Thank you for the video. Did any of your seeds germinate?
Hello! Yes, I had about a 5-7% germinated! I believe this can be higher if you take seeds that are surrounded by the same species for banksias. You get better pollination this way hence more seed germination (as what I have been able to research online).
in dont understand. pls respoon di need to this expierement pls hlp ne😘
I was hoping to see them germinated but you don't show
I had to move countries and give away most my trees
