[R]-Week-After Being-@-Walpole On-The-South-West-Coast-of-Western-Australia ('Southern'-ABBOTTLAND >(*U^)<) &-Seeing Cephalotus-@-'Coalmine'-BEACH They-Had a ~[5.3]-EARTHQUAKE Which-Presum'ably Wiped-The-Whole Cliff-Face-of Plants (You'll 'Understand'-This Statement Once You've Seen My Images-&-Videos of-a 'Recent'-FALL Pre-Tremor) ... One-Wonders Perhaps The-Government Ought-To Pay-Me A-Stipend Just-To-'Stay'-HOME In-Future!!!??? >(*U^)< (Joke)

ANYWAY ... "I"-'Tried' Loading-UP Some [2.3]-Megers ... But-Perhaps They're Too-Big / "I"m-Under-Some-Form-of 'Return'-To-LIFE Policy On-This-SITE (Other) ... So Links To FACEBOOK-&-YOUTUBE Will Have-To-Do For-NOW.

"I"ve-'Returned'-From-The-WEST ('Second'-Half-of-CHILDHOOD On-The-Perth 'Coastal'-PLAIN Remember) Looking-@ The Brian-DENTONII Drosera-Whittakeriis In-[R] Much-'Moor' Favourable Light Compared-To The Red-&-Montane Erythorrhizas of The West:

Also With The Knowledge Thart Focusing On The Nature-&-Consistency of The 'Grey'-Sand Should-Lead To-Much-'Moor' Fruitful Outcomes In-The-Near-Future so-to-Speak ... Since [All]-Sites-Visited Thart Contained [CPs] Were Almost-Always Growing On or In-The-Vercinity of This 'Grey'-Sand Much-'Greyier' Than-"I" Remembered-It After Visiting Both My 'Home'-Site as-Well-as Yule-BROOK!!!??? >(*U^)<

Most-Books-&-Papers CLYMO-Etc Will Give-You A Surface-Flow Aeration-Rate of Around ~ 43-Centimetre Per-Second ie Basically 'Half'-a-Metre Per-Second Flow-Rate Across Rock-Surfaces Etc ... But-"I"m Not-Really Impressed With The-PERLITE Used For Aeration / [All]-Roots Require-Oxygen Argument ... Especially After Seeing THIS:
