[ID] Flowering shrub

Post by MoGanic »

Hi all,

Anyone know what this one is? I thought of Gardenia Shooting star but the flower petals and petiole were too different!

Choisya ternata - Mexican orange blossom I think. Should flower in spring but lots of plants flower out of season occasionally.

Your tree is also showing early signs of Iron deficiency (or possibly magnesium as it is hard ot tell without looking at more of the tree), however if it is Iron then this can often show up as the weather starts to cool off in many species of plants.

That can't be good for it. Will get on to treatment when I can.

Thanks for the heads up mate.
