Celtis australis-  (Donaldson St, Braddon).

http://vro.agriculture.vic.gov.au/dpi/vro/vrosite.nsf/pages/weeds_european-nettle-tree

 

The fruit of this tree is sweet and edible, and can be eaten raw or cooked (WIKI 2009). No, spines, burrs, thorns (Agnote 2009). Unlikely to have a major effect on threatened fauna species. Except were species are dependant on a particular habitat which is replaced, but no reports of this. Minor effects.”

Does anyone know what the tree is on Donaldson Street in Ainslie ?

 

WE have had quite a few calls about Flying Foxes eating the fruit .

 

A few have died on the street but I am not sure if it is the fruit or the Large electricity transformer opposite Ainslie Primary School .

 

thanks

Denise
