[ID] Anyone

Post by Bougy Fan »

These trees are growing in a unit complex I have done work at. I snagged a few seedlings and I am not sure if they are suitable to bonsai ?

It almost looks related to the nandina shrub. I see they are related to the barberry family.
A full shot of the shape might help?

It's too bad your in such a hurry cause the stories I could tell you, Bushels and baskets of stories, hole crates full of stories. But if you can spare a moment I will tell you one story.

This is a euphorbia species, not too sure on the exact one but similar to the snowflake euphorbia (E. leucocephala). Not too sure how they would go as bonsai.
