Not a Holly.
Or even an Osmanthus.
I wonder if I should leave the name until later to see if our resident horticulturalist/botanist knows it?
Well! The "spinosa" bit's certainly right...
"Definition:
It's probably wise to take care around plants that have a species or variety name of spinosa. As you might guess, these plants have spines.
These names also mean spiny:
Spinescens Spinifer Spinifera Spiniferum Spinifex Spinosum Spinosus"
It reckons it's a Desfontainia spinosa
If I keep this up, looking for "Watch this space by me" will be a fruitless exercise.
Last try with this beaut didn't survive over three winters, bloody odd since it's supposed to be Andean.
If at first you don't succeed, cuss a bit and try again.
Like the parrot with a split beak...you can only suck seed.
Oooh Bug writt. I've just discovered...
"Resilience
Hardiness
H3 (may need winter protection)"
