- Caption "Common or Outeniqua Yellowood, Podcarpus falcatus in front of garden of St Andrews Prep School, West Hill, Grahamstown. Taken 22 April 1977. Planted in 1935, along with the Kaffirboom, Erythrina caffra, to the right by Mr C. Griffin Mullins, housemaster and later headmaster of the school, when his son R. Lorraine G. Mullins was born. An old friend, Mr F. H. Holland, brought Mr. Mullins a small yellowwood seedling so small that it fitted into a matchbox. The kaffirboom seedling was not much larger. Information from Mr. Griffin Mullins himself. The photo taken 1977, shows the trees after 42 years growth. The yellowwood's trunk one metre from the ground was 784 mm in diameter, the Kaffirboom's; 1, 219 mm."
