Bush tic?

Post by pebble »

Not 100% sure what this is.
It is ether seeds I bought online when I first started about 5 years ago.
Or a cutting I’ve have taken and developed

But really feel like this is becoming one of my favourites on the bench.
Love how quick it has grown and how easy it has been to develop

What your thoughts on ID kunesa? Mel?

Looks like a Kunzea but there are a few others that look a little similar. I suppose you have not had flowers? That would give far better ID.

Hi Pebble ,
I am with Shibui on this one. Most likely Kunzea Ambigua ,judging by the growth and leaf size. Nice tree ,have fun with this one.
Cheers John.
