Tamarisk tetrandra

OH has just taken our stick out and put it in a pot, this is supposed to be a coastal plant, your always looks wonderful, our neighbour gets the best of our plants also!! so I know how you feel!!

Its still pretty, i have one which is not much more than a twig despite being a few years old. Moved it last year out of desperation and it is showing some signs of life but nothing like this...it is still not much more than a twig!

If it makes it through the summer , I might give it a good cut back to spur some new growth.

What a beautiful tree Janey!

Yes I shall give this one a good haircut too girls, when its finished, especially those heavy branches next door...they'll not mind, they don't like gardening too much.
I wonder why yours aren't growing too well, we have quite a few in the village here all flowering away like mad, maybe its this east side they like???

Thanks Sheila!

It looks great to me Janey.

Sarah ours has been a stick for over 3 years, so fed up with it!! it was a stick when we bought it, big mistake.

Looks wonderful. I have no luck growing it.

Pity it's not quite so good...but looks wonderful anyway!

On my list of ''MUST buy'' we are quite near the coast so should do ok. Is it a tree or a shrub ?

That is so pretty Janey I shall be pleased if my baby one ever looks that good . l,ve taken your advice and only have one stem :o))

A bit late but I've just found it - beautiful! I have one of these, but at the moment it's still very small in a 3 litre pot.

I wouldn't be without mine Helenium, they make such a pretty airy small tree and when flowered it's floaty needle like leaves look great all summer....:))

Sounds good, must put it in larger pot.
