Tagasaste was first grown in the Adelaide Botanic Gardens in 1879 from seeds shared by the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew. Grown in its native habitat of the Canary Islands as a windbreak and for animal fodder, farmers in both Australia and New Zealand have also utilised this fast growing tree for its ability to provide shelter and animal fodder in a wide range of climates and conditions.

Charlotte ★★★★★

Planted these as a windbreak along our paddock edge, and they've already put on a good foot of growth this season. The historical connection to the Adelaide Botanic Gardens is a nice touch for any seed enthusiast.

James ★★★★★

Germination was quick and uniform, which I didn't expect from a tree seed. The historical tie to Kew Gardens is a nice touch for a windbreak, and the seedlings are already sturdy enough to handle a breezy spot.

Eli H. ★★★★☆

Planted these along a windy patch of my property, and they've already started to take off as a solid windbreak. The seeds sprouted well, though a few took a bit longer than expected.
