re Cussonia transvaalensis

Cussonia paniculata can be slow to gain height, but C.

and you should be rewarded with faster growth. I find
that C. spicata is quite happy in shade, while C.
paniculata looks better in full sun.



Thankyou for this advice. Very helpful. I have two Cussonias - c.paniculata in the ground and had thought the other one was c.spicata but see it is c.transvaalensis. I can't seem to find much info on this and wonder if you know if this grows fast or slow, height etc. At the moment, c. transvaalensis is in a pot but I was thinking of planting it outside.

Thankyou for your advice.
