Does anybody have portulacaria afra growing in a 'wild" (not bonsaied) state
at their place? I've found a couple of pics on the net, but they don't
really show how it grows int he wild....

Interesting, I would've thought that there would be plenty. I found only one
small pic of massed flowering. Then I searched using the African name
Spekboom and found this

Not what you wanted to see, I fear. But this is nevertheless how
Portulacaria grows in nature. Not a tree form, just thicket.

The reason I wanted the pics wasn't to style my own trees... I was writing
down the hints and tricks I've learned on how to make P. afra behave into
bonsai and was looking for pics to compare to... i.e. this is what you'd get
if you leave if alone versus this is what you get when you do these tricks


Google pics aren't very good in this case, I'd already tried that... was
hoping somebody had it as a bush or something in there yard and I could get
close up pics

Thanks for the help so far!
