i know some of you hate this stuff, but it's the same reason i love it

mirror bush grows like crazy here, and most places i would believe...
this one was yamadori from the coastline of howrah, and don't worry, the council office told me to

i recently repotted it, and added rocks, then gave it it's first hair cut last wednesday nyt (4/11/9), and then gave it a tweak with some wire...
im hoping to defoliate this one 4 or 5 times this season, let's see how this one goes...

Now THAT is spectacular!!! Love the shot without the foliage mate. The pot suits it beautifully. Well done mate. Last week I went for a walk along the newly constructed coastal walk from Bronte Beach here in Sydney to Clovelly and they are everywhere. I did not realise they were Corprosma. Would you by chance know the exact Botanical name for this species???

caprosma repens, orange berries too

Flower Power has heaps in a number of different leaves... red/yellow shiny leaves, chocolately leaves. All very well except my chocolately leaf one went green promptly and despite the fact the destructions say 'it likes dry once established' it doesn't.... or didn't since it went to god in the garden. Unfortunately you will never find that sort of quality trunk at Flower Power. Only Hollywood trees... thin and straight.

Hi Aaron, I know it is a Coprosma Repens but its hould also have a cultivar name.: For example ,Some of the others available are Coprosma Repens var. "Coppershine", Coprosma Repens var. "Painters Pallet" and so on.

THATS GREAT!

na, this one is the O.G. it has many varigations and cultivars, but this one is just plain, old.

"they" call it mirror bush...

ant you could write childrens stories

...but you're right, that's exactly the thing i was going for

yeah such stories!
