DOOR TO DOOR KNOCKING

Post by IS2SXC »

today since i was cut about not being able to go to blacktown i went with my sister for a drive around neighbouring suburbs and literally went to every house asking

I HIT THE JACKPOT!!! i asked a lady for her hibiscus since her house was bushes everywhere but instead she told me about a bougainvillea she recently chopped so i went to the back and looked


the lady gave 2 hibiscus a little smaller than at the front still pretty big , a flower quince, the bougainvillea a gardenia and a large fushcia if i can dig it between the shed :D

i collected this todays can someone ID this tree i thought it was a chrysanthemum but i dont know it had yellow flowers

to be honest mate im not a hundred percent sure but looking at those leaves and flowers, to me it looks like some form of daisy. it may seem like a shock answer but some forms of daisy can get very woody. i am not 100% but beleive those leaves make me think daisy ;)

Does look particularly like a daisy. The old one next door, has bark like that.

Yep I think it's some sort of daisy too. But it could turn out to be a great daisy bonsai. I have seen some nice daisy bonsai displayed in magazines.
Good score Minh. I love the movement too.

Always we hope someone else has the answer.
