berries on nandina domestica?
My local garden centre says that nandina domestica will produce a good show of red berries for Christmas. According to books, it only produce berries after a very warm summer.....so I'm wondering if urglers have seen one with berries in the UK, and whereabouts? Janet |

Must be more too it. No idea, Bob. We'll keep a closer look out this year. We sell them, so you'd think they'd cross pollinate but apparently not. There's also a very mature one in the prop. house but that has no berries, either. Interestingly, we saw hedges of them in California in autumn but those had no berries, either. -- Sacha www.hillhousenursery.co.uk South Devon (remove the weeds to email me) |

..uk The message from "Bob Hobden" contains these words: snip If we get them to fruit in the outskirts of London I would have thought you would also succeed where you are Sacha, can't imagine it's just summer heat then, perhaps they like to be cross pollinated or their pollinator isn't down your way. Must be more too it. Interesting, thanks. London's probably drier than Devon where Sacha is, and possibly a few degrees warmer? Janet. I think I've solved the mystery, though I haven't been out to check on ours yet. The variety 'Nana' doesn't berry as freely, if at all and I suspect that's what we've got. The following site has some very good descriptions and pics: http://www.global-garden.com.au/back...09feature1.htm -- Sacha (remove the weeds to email me) |

Well the one I planted was certainly taller when I planted it than "Nana" is supposed to get so that may well explain it. You need to be careful with your choice of variety then Janet. Looks like "Richmond" is a good one from that site you gave us Sacha. -- Regards Bob Use a useful Screen Saver... http://setiathome.ssl.berkeley.edu/ and find intelligent life amongst the stars |
