New Bucida Trees and Japanese Roses

We have just planted three variegated Bucida trees in the small garden at the main entrance. The garden bed we have filled with Japanese Roses of various colors. We have also added spotlights and water sprinklers.


Bucida Molineti (Variegated Leaf)
A slow growing tree from the Bahamas with a strong horizontal branching habit, this attractive plant may reach 25 feet in height. This adaptable plant will grow almost anywhere except under extremely salty conditions or dense shade. It makes an excellent specimen or container plant, a good rock garden plant, a bonsai subject, or in the interiorscape. (Source: zookeepersjournal.com)
