Name of cigar tree
 

I am loking for some cigar shaped trees that will grow in a narrow
garden alongside a fence.

I have heard of one that sounds like "potastamin" or simiilar.

Any ideas most welcome.

Thanks. I have it. Pitto tenuifolium. Will check with nursery. I
guess it will grow well in SE Qld.

me again graley,

just to start you off we have this one:

Cattle Bush - 'Pittosporum phillyreoides'

it looks like it has the growth habit you are looking for.

these ones like it very well drained not sure about all the others but
would assume they would be the same.
