Abstract
Cambial activity of a subalpine population of Olearia ilicifolia continued throughout the mild winter of 1984 with a subsequent resting period from September to November. Radial growth ceased from June to October in older trees at another stand at similar altitude some 400 m distant. It is suggested that mild winter temperatures allowed the continuation of wood increment in the younger trees.Keywords
