#PaintByWords #Acorn
Technically this isn't an actual acorn; it's a eucalyptus seed pod, but it looks very similar in size and features.

Want to grow #eucalyptus in your yard but they are too darn big?
Try #pollard, an ancient practice of cutting the "poll" at a pre-determined height and using or cycling the material for mulch. Every cut is always made on new wood so it's a sound #arboriculture practice, it can maintain #trees to specific heights that are reset on a cycle plus they don't get out of control. Bonus is, they also live longer based on a pollard history of thousands of years.
Pictured here are Eucalyptus cloeziana, Gympie Messmate, pollards with #vetiver grass underneath as a mulching plant. The Vetiver existed first, the #eucalypts were planted in after the Vetiver Grass suppressed the pasture grass.
These poles will be grown and harvested as 2.1m posts eventually while some Kei Apples and Citrus establish underneath.
As soon as these reached a medium size, insects like sawfly and stick insects moved in which were never present before as the area is too small to grow full size Gum trees.
If you are interested in a history of #coppice and/or pollard, there are some books available, one example: https://www.williambryantlogan.com/sprout-lands

Question #botanique #pépinière #animals
J'ai planté avant hier 1 #eucalyptus. Il mesure une septantaine de centimètres et est tout feuillu (il est beau !!!). Le vente a arraché les protections contre les chevreuils et les lapins. Mais est-ce que les chevreuils et les lapins mangent de l'eucalyptus globulus feuillu et odorant ?
