Re: In My Garden Today Posted by Fred SC on April 30, 2025, 11:07 am, in reply to "In My Garden Today" Alvin, your Ilex cornuta is deadly! There is a form without the thorns called ‘Carissa’. Nice Tulips and Hyanthis are beauties! Beautiful Abutilon! I had one at my old place in Greer. Your Osmsnthus looks good. There are some mature variegated Pittisporum a couple streets up from me. I do like them.

Re: In My Garden Today Posted by Alvin, z6 on April 30, 2025, 10:45 pm, in reply to "Re: In My Garden Today" Thanks, Fred. I agree that the Chinese Holly is spiny. This is one of the most spiny hollies. Goshiki, although an Osmanthus, is also kinda spiky. Cactus or Agave-like, in this way. Both the Chinese Holly, and Goshiki are BLEs. This Abutilon now gives me three different colors. I think I remember you mentioning the Wheelers Dwarf Pittosporum growing near you. For some reason, my Chinese Pittosporum, usually blooms in winter, is blooming later, this year.
