Mystery Plant.
As you've been spot-on with a couple of other plant I.D. questions I've had,
I thought I'd give you another try. I got this "shrub" as a freebie a few years ago, from memory (poor at the best of times) I thought it was a minature mimosa but when I look that up on "tinternet" it looks nothing like the photo's, I know mimosas have folding leaves but just thought it was a different type. i suspect also that it doesn't like the soil type in my garden (alkaline,chalky/flint) as some of the leaves go yellow, any ideas? http://sites.google.com/site/whatisthisplant/ Regards. |

Was getting my Mimosa and Magnolia mixed up!! Well, it appears it's not a magnolia stellata, I've given it to a friend as it didn't like my chalky soil, it's doing fine in his garden BUT it hasn't flowered (stellata's already have) and it's producing catkins. Could it be a mini willow? |

Could it be a mini willow? Can someone photograph those catkins? Magnolias can produce furry catkin-like buds and this may be e.g. Magnolia x loebneri about to flower -- Sacha www.hillhousenursery.com South Devon I'll try and get a photo. |
It is clear to the meanest intellect that you post nothing with any information content. I for one am so irritated by your resurrection of long-dead posts that nothing would induce me to click on the website you are advertising.
