Only sandstone soils?[edit]

The introduction suggests K. ambigua is only found on sandstone soils. This would contradict the fact that it also occurs on coastal sands, granite (as on Wilsons Promontory) and, as this same article claims, on volcanics in the Warrumbungles. Azarov98 (talk) 16:24, 7 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Yikes, good point. I'll substitute "only" with "mainly" -coastal sands are essentially sandstone based in NSW and Vic though. Casliber (talk · contribs) 19:59, 7 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, as I understand it, "coastal sands" means those deposited by the ocean (not soils derived from sandstone in situ), but OK... Azarov98 (talk) 19:56, 11 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Link to bush tucker page[edit]

I note that this plant is included on the bush tucker page, which states "A refreshing tea can be made from the dried leaves." I would suggest then to include a link to the bush tucker page (Bush tucker) from here, and include the information about it making a tea - I don't how to do that.
