Putty is a village in New South Wales, Australia in Singleton Shire. It is north west of Sydney on the Putty Road between Windsor and Singleton. 1 Putty's proximity to the Wollemi National Park means it is sometimes used as a starting or finishing point for treks. 2  Hikers often utilise old logging trails that make it possible to walk through the national park on trips of eighty kilometres or more.

Wollemi Cabins provides accommodation in the Blue Mountains World Heritage Area with cabins and a house in the Mountain Lagoon, Bilpin, Mount Tomah and Berambing areas. The cabins have been built using environmentally sustainable principles and have spa's, barbecues, open fires and double and queen beds. Wollemi House has been designed to incorporate the feel of the Blue Mountains bush and a raw natural aesthetic has been used throughout the interior of the house. After much procrastination (and I really do *not* like the fact that Wollemi was registered as a trademark here in the USA), I finally ordered a Wollemi Pine from the Wollemi Pine North America Website on 1/5/2008, and it arrived via UPS 2nd Day this week on 1/17. Australia wrote: I bought my Wollemi a few weeks ago at a garden show here in Sydney. For $45 I received a 2 ft tall tree in lovely condition. I repotted it in a good humous soil and decided to keep it in a pot to re use as our Christmas tree in the future. The Discovery of the Wollemi Pine. The Wollemi pine was a critically endangered species when it was discovered by Dave Noble in 1994, and its exact location in the Wollemi National Park remains a closely guarded secret. The botanist Carrick Chambers stated that the discovery was: the equivalent of finding a small dinosaur alive on earth. The Wollemi pine evolved around 140 million years ago, when Australia was part of a super continent called Gondwana, which linked Australia, New Guinea and Antarctica. The arrival of the Wollemi pine coincided with the first flowering plants, and the extinction of the dinosaurs INTRODUCTION: Wollemi National Park is one of the largest in New South Wales, taking in about 500 000 hectares of wilderness country. Located in the park at a secret location are a number of sites where the rare Wollemi Pine grows. This tree was first discovered in 1994. Dunns Swamp is found on the Cudgegong River, about 25km north of Rylstone, in the Wollemi National Park. The swamp area is caused by the Kandos Weir. The area is known for its pagoda rock formations. On our way out, we scrambled up to a rock on the cliff, just above the canopy and level with King Billy, the only pine unashamedly obvious to the outside world. From this lookout, and for the first time that day, we were able to get a perspective on just how weird this organism called a Wollemi pine really is. Against the gun-metal olive greens of traditional Australian bush, the rich deep greens of King Billy look completely out of place. More than two years after the discovery of the now world-famous prehistoric Wollemi Pines, the Herald had obtained permission to visit the trees. On Tuesday this week, the Herald spent a day with NPWS and Royal Botanic Gardens staff who travelled to the site as part of a monitoring program. The village lies in a wide valley. The knee-deep Putty Creek, or the Tupa, rises in north at the foot of Mt Kindarun, and runs the length of the valley before joining with the Wollemi Creek which then feeds into the Colo River. 1 Putty's proximity to the Wollemi National Park means it is sometimes used as a starting or finishing point for treks. 2  Hikers often utilise old logging trails that make it possible to walk through the national park on trips of eighty kilometres or more.
