[QUOTE="James, post: 1973, member: 212"] Tony, go for it I say . Nothing to stop you growing a crop ..... it thrives in soils of poor quality and is generally a pioneer crop after bush has been cleared, or land stripped for gold mining. The best quality comes from land where it has 'wet feet'. It'll grow like a weed in a warm and moist environment. Look on the internet site TradeMe and you will find nurseries here selling seedlings by the tray . But like Bron says, you will need quite a lot of it, and it needs to be the major flowering plant in the area to get a pure yield. Probably don't call it Manuka though ..... perhaps something more indigenous to your region ...... Mivanka .... And if all else fails , come and visit and help extract your own bucket full ! [/QUOTE]
