arbutus unedo in nature/ mount Athos

Its the bark on this one that I`m waiting for, a long wait as mine is about 18" high at the moment, it has flowered wonderfully well though.

Ah, this is the strawberry tree that Milky asked for ID on, it's lovely.

I have this shrub, it looks like it is doing better in nature for producing than in my garden, mine looks healthy and had a lot of the bell shaped flowers, but no berries. :))))

I've just gone one!!...put it in a pot for the patio :-)

Mine hasn't produced fruit yet, it had flowers.

smiles, isn't Mount Athos the men-only mountain?? would that have anything to do with it??

Yes thats it THE HOLLY MOUNTAIN

*s* perhaps why they grow so well, no women around???
