Melaleuca
ericifolia
Swamp Paperbark

Is the bark almost white with fawn/brown tinges and flakey? Grows with an upright habit, seen in stands close together? Has a small pointy leaves, a little prickly with small cream flowers in clusters, I think in spring/summer? Doesn't seem to live long, often snaps half way up the trunk and likes wet areas?

OK, it's some sort of paper bark from your wood pile then. Hard to carve?

OK, your head is on the keyboard, your snoring and your computer is making all sorts of sounds, have a good sleep SPIRIT, and happy Haiku

Actually SPIRIT, I resent that comment, I don't know what you mean or where it came from unless it's your own conscience that's troubling you. Following it with a doesn't do it for me. You say you don't know anything about wood, I could tell you where to stick it if that helps.

Hello!
This is Noel.......
I can't carve to save my soul.......but I like the free feeling of this sub - forum.
Let's keep it that way please.
(or I'll show you pics of my attempts)
Then you'll really have something to nick about.

The message is.....keep it nice please.
