Although this tree was in last year’s competition I thought I would enter it this years due to the flowers.
I bought this tree in 2005 as a standardized pot plant ( 1.7 Meters). The nursery was located in Young NSW and the owner/nurseryman had been experimenting with this plant for some years and wasn't happy with its progress.
When I got it home I reduced its size to a lower branch which I suspect had developed due to neglect. (Bonus for me).
