Common or Black Mulberry (Morus nigra) "It's the last survivor of a plantation of exotic trees at Reeve's Point, Kingscote, Kangaroo Island, put there in the South Australian Company's garden in 1836, shortly after the company's ships had begun the official settlement of the province of South Australia." cf. www.nationaltrustsa.org.au/heritage_icons_2005.htm#kangar...

Yacca or Grass Tree_2

Xanthorrhoea sp., one of ca. 30 species of the genus Xanthorrhoea, indigenous to Australia. (cf. www.pawlan.com/Monica/xanthor/#species ) "These remarkable plants have a lifespan of 600 years but are very slow-growing. The trunk takes a decade to form initially as it is composed of a mass of old leaf bases held together by a natural resin. It is then a further 20 years or more before the mass of thin, linear leaves rises above it. From then on, it grows only about 1-2cm (0.4-0.8in) in height per year." www.grasstree.com/
