Does anyone know where sagebrush can be purchased in bulk? Shops in W.A and near Perth? Know of any ebay suppliers?

Hi there Chas
Sagebush -- you are actualy talkin about the shrub/bush ?
Like used here -

They would make excellent trees.
Today I asked at the local plant nusury, they don't stock it, they don't know who does.
She checked, we do have them (or type of ) growing in Oz, Murray brige/Mannum & towwrds N.T.
This doesn't help yer much - bit of searching I found reference to Albany & East gold fields.
Maybe check with your local florist or nursury.
