You get them from your friends when they're cleaning out their cattle property!

I don't know where you might buy one though. I think Aquamad got his from a fuel depot in Cairns. Is there something like that in Rocky?

not sure about in Rockhampton, but there is a place in Bris selling food grade IBC for $275 - not sure of freight charges.

e-bay advertises them but normally pickup only

The plant is pictured is Kniphofia uvaria of the Liliaceae family and is native to South Africa. The specimens in the bushland near Melbourne would be self seeded weeds more than likely from garden refuse – they occur the same near Ballarat, VIC. They are incredibly hardy and obviously do well in the Australian climate, broadly speaking.

By the way, this is an impressive system, great to see such passion! :shock:

You learn something everyday.

Didn't know they were called that.

Seen them used for water and molasses.
