Hi Cristian!

Cordia is used for rope (Cordia? Rope?), the leaves are used as cattle fodder in India, and the fruit has anti-inflammatory properties. It is also known as "Assyrian plum". It is in the Boraginaceae and is considered an invasive weed. So you may be doin
g Argentina a terrible disservice by growing this plant: make sure it doesn't get loose!

Someone described it as "a small tree with large, entangled branches. Looking from the ground, it looks a crazy puzzle or a bird´s nest". That sounds promising for bonsai.

Hey Jim, it's introduced into Florida- ever seen it?

Thanks Nina, Ok, tendre taken care of that expands and is a bad idea to introduce it aqui, in Argentina, but reason why you comment is a plant that has an important distribution of branches like cultivating it like Bonsai, if it is of slow growth, you you
do not know something on the culture. I burn

you you do not know something on the culture.

It is tolerant of dry conditions and salinity and needs full sun. It grows in well-drained soils.

(I'm getting all this from a Google Search, incidentally. Type in "Cordia myxa" and you'll get the same stuff)

I write to them because yesterday recibi three planitnes of CORDIA MYXA,
brought it to the Argentina of seeds of Egypt, say that with the wood of this
arbol towards the ataudes of the Pharaohs. BRBR
Va aqui:A HREF="http://www.arbolesornamentales.com/Cordiamyxa.htm"CORDIA
MYXA/A
I found this reference in Spanish. If you search on Cordia myxa, you will find
numerous other references, but there is nothing about Egypt or the Pharaohs.
Probably a myth.

Ola Cristian,

I haven't any direct experience with Cordia Myxa, but the Hortus I have says: Tropical deciduous tree to 40 feet, broad-ovate leaves to 5 inches (11cm), white flowers 1/2 inch or less in clusters, tan colored fruit 3/4 inch in diameter, used in medicine I
ndia to Australia. Planted in California and American tropics.

Perhaps one of our Ozzies knows this tree and can tell you if the leaves will reduce, I don't know.
Regards,
