It looks to me like a 15mm slab underneath... So, scaling it up, I'd say the tree is about 114mm.

And clero in a Pat Kennedy pot.

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :hooray: You wouldn't believe how I got it. I Knew it was a Serissa and went out the back and cut a Serissa twig off, magnified the pic, it was the same size as the twig and leaves, then I measured the tree with a tape measure. Rocket science!!! :whistle:
