This is a tree In my backyard, ever since I’ve moved in I have been thinking about doing an air layer but before I do wanted to find out some more information on it.
I’ve tried to do my own id but with no luck, I feel like it’s a pretty easy one and I should know the name of the tree.
It has a glossy stepped edge leaf and think it has purple flower at some time in the year. Looks like the flower buds are coming out at the moment.
Anyway Here are some pictures
