What is this please?
Anyone have a clue as to what this little tree is called?
It is about 6 years old and the main stem has died back a couple of times, then it has again sprouted from the base Looks to be frost intolerant as after a hard winter, it dies back, but then replenishes itself in the spring, It is flowering now, early summer, the leaves are mimosa type http://img2.freeimagehosting.net/uploads/c4a0558da1.jpg |

But the point is George, what are you doing on here, You know about as much as I do about this gardening thing'ee, and that's nothing. Your loyal nephew, bassett |

Your loyal nephew, bassett Thanks for your reply Bassett, thought that I was going to get an answer to my question But asking a question on flowers and petals to the usual crowd, usually brings an answer from someone who only knows something about bicycle petals But I have since found out that it is a Albizia Julibrissen, a mimosa plant or by another name, A Persian Silk Tree. Maybe that Persian tart who called in a couple of years ago left it here Glad that is the only thing she left But in my spare time, of which I dont have much, I have a small interest in gardening I do the looking and someone else does the work |

"" Add a bit of colour, What"" Anyway enough of this idle chatter, here's hoping you have a good Christmas Uncle. I was only saying to Aunty, the other day when she popped in with my weekly "smalls" Uncle George is looking much better since he dumped you. And just like Aunty would, She nodded knowingly and agreed. But one thing I must say, she arrived in a new Ferrari, driven by a young man in dark glasses. Which does make a nice change from the Donkey cart you drive. So it seems you have also been replaced... Sorry about that, but someone had to tell you. Your loving nephew bassett |
