Pisonia umbellifera 'variegata' - Map Plant, Bird Catcher Tree


 Pisonia umbellifera 'variegata' - Map Plant, Bird Catcher Tree (Pisonia umbellifera 'variegata' - Map Plant, Bird Catcher Tree)

This is one of my favorite variegated shrub/tree. The Polynesian native is pretty widely grown in a semi-shaded area...in full sun the white part of the leaves burn easily. Photo taken in Balboa Park, San Diego, CA. on Dec. 2, 2010.

I must get one soon. It tends to be a pretty expensive tree...mostly only available in 5 gallon containers and costing more than $30.00.
