Never heard of Qld Plain tree, do you know its latin name? (looks like Cardwellia Sublimis to me though)

Yeah I think there's something smelly about this one. Googled Queensland plain (plane) tree and no hits at all, nada, zip, zilch. Latin name would be good. Originally Posted by journeyman Mick

Myself?? I would'nt of known.
I got this timber off of Jamie at Halmiton Sawmills. He is the head of a HUGE sawmill, he has hundreds of different timbers. He ships all over the world. I got it off him.
He said it
He knows it

Joash,
just because he says it's so doesn't make it so I'm afraid. Find me a reference to it in a book or on the net with its botanical name and I'll agree, but otherwise, as far as I'm concerned you and Jamie have got it wrong.

Still waiting......
Hey Joash!
still waiting on your response. There's no such thing as Qld Plain/Plane Tree as far as I can tell from googling or any reference books that I have plus asking a couple of local botanists. This doesn't look too good when you are selling timber, I'd suggest. If Jamie has made a mistake or is using an obscure local "common" name, then fair enough, but let people know what the true identity of this timber is.
