Any idea how mature the trees are? Some good-looking trees in that list!

  They’re usually pretty small still. If you want your pick get there early.
  One year I went and there were about 3 types left.

  I used to get the free Sutherland Shire trees and they were tube stock. I assume CoS is the same.

    More than they have in the suburbs, where the whole housing estate gets leveled.

  CoS is much bigger and has a lot more urban residential than you think. My street has a lot of shrubs planted on the nature strip where most people have grass.
  
  Either through laziness or environmental concern, there appear to be a lot more trees than when i lived 20km south of Sydney CBD.
  
  My courtyard(s) have 13 large planter boxes. I have frangipani, cordylions, palm tree, lilli pilli, tomatoes, spinach, basil, mint, parsley.
