Pot Size: 5 litre Price: £45.00 Description: It's been a long haul from the collecting of the seed of this species, from the Micromeles sectionin, in 1999 to offering this species we collected with Dan Hinkley on Fansipan Mountain in the northern most part of Vietnam. Where it only formed a small tree with arching branches of serrulate acuminate ovate leaves, emerging fresh, glossy and bronze tinted in early spring not long after the upright short but wide panicles of white scented flowers emerge in March (February in mild winters). Resulting in green heavily lenticeled round fruit by the summer which are held for months before yellowing. Been hardy to -15C for us, transplanting from one of our fields to the garden. Easily grown in any well drained soil, preferably in good light.
