A friend's asked me if I know anything (answer: no) or can find anything =
out about (hence this message) the plant he's grown from seed (sorry: I =
don't know where the seed came from) under this name.
He says it's prostrate, has white flowers (flowering now, in the UK) and =
white berries which age through pink to pale red.
Internet searches have drawn a blank - even Tropicos, usually a good bet =
for myrtles
So I turn to the infinite wisdom and knowledge of Medit-Plants! =
Seriously, anyone know it? Or have ideas about where I might discover =
info. about it? Is the odd specific name a place name? If so, =
whereabouts is the place? I couldn't even make a guess.
TIA for any suggestions
