Species I.D
Hi All, I collected a few of these several weeks ago. They were pretty dry and a greyish red colour. They have slowly greened up and have been pushing new growth , the tips mostly green but sometimes red. They have a strong smell when crushed. Just hoping someone might be able tell me what they are as they have beautiful trunks and a lovely shape through the branches so hopefully will work out. Thanks John.

One of the fabulous things about growing bonsai is as you get old and decrepit your trees get old and beautiful

Re: Species I.D
Probably a Micromyrtus, could also by a Calytrix. I hope they grow for you, they have great potential. Ash
