Flowering of Grafted Ramets of Pinus Caribaea Var. Hondurensis in Northern Queensland, Australia

The seed cones initiated in the third to sixth years after grafting were counted on each of 266 ramets representing 16 clones in a seed orchard situated at Kennedy, in northern Queensland. There was a rapid increase in the number of flowers produced between the fourth and fifth years after grafting, a typical pattern for P. caribaea var. hondurensis in Queensland. Clonal repeatabilities, and genetic correlations from one season to the next, were generally high.
