Hi Meanie. This photo is lovely. The tiny flowers on it look like miniature fushia blooms. Have you noticed this?

Lin - not the greatest shot as the flowers were about ten foot up and the sun shining through the leaves was causing exposure problems.
I'll pop back on a more overcast day anyway, so watch this space.
The tree itself has a little shelter from a tall wall, but is clearly do-able in our climate, and I must say that I am tempted to give one a go.
