[ID.] Evergreen Tree with Burgundy Fowers.

Post by Pearcy001 »

Hi guys,

Chasing an ID. on this tree.

Sits approximately 4m tall and 2.5m wide.

Has put out a flush of burgundy flowers.

The flowers are at the end of their run so most have fallen off already, but this tree was covered at first.

Flowers are sort of tubular when looking side on. They consist of 5 petals with a overall 6-7mm diameter.


If anyone does know it can they tell me if it backbuds? I'll put on an airlayer if so.

Cheers,
Pearcy.
