These are grown as dwarfs not taller than 2 metres and are sort of casual topiary rather than tight balls Really looking a picture at moment <br />Cheers RoseleeUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05070719658664294729noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6479859570419479394.post-87150509767632832102013-06-14T10:27:49.103+12:002013-06-14T10:27:49.103+12:00Ah, Vic - that is called making excellent use of t...Ah, Vic - that is called making excellent use of the 'borrowed landscape'. All care and no responsibility. Love it! Hasn't it been an amazing autumn/early winter for colour in HB and Wairarapa? Touch wood!!

Although they are nothing at all like the tree form of Liqiuidamber styraciflua, as they have presumably been grafted at some point, but not sure of parentage? I would put up with biannual trimming if this was the effect I got!!

But I can recognise that these are exquisite! We have a fabulous outlook over our local botanical gardens, and I love looking out at all the autumn colours at the moment - a kaleidoscope of reds, burnt oranges, and yellow! xVic Bibbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05066270062193356718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6479859570419479394.post-3768835152715296252013-06-13T16:22:27.432+12:002013-06-13T16:22:27.432+12:00They are fabulous....what a blast of cheery colour...They are fabulous....what a blast of cheery colour! Yes, much more interesting than the mop tops....and something a little different.
