Dear Liz,
There are dozens of ancient bushes of this around St Peters,
Marden, Joslin, Rose Park, Wayville, Hyde Park areas - all settled
and suburban by the 1920's. There are several uge ones at
CARRICK HILL estate in Springfield. All flower well and set large
pear shaped seed pods. I wonder what more you could do to trigger
flowering?
regards
trevor n
