Puss' Outbox

Thanks Angela, as far as i can remember youve about hit the nail on the head, how disapointing,however if they flower next year I will let everyone know the colour of the berries. I do hope they are pink as I have the ordinary one and also a varigated one which was a surprise to me . I should explain we only bought this property two years ago and the garden was very overgrown so it has been a voyage of discovery. lots of new {to me}plants coming up in odd places.I found a Crytomeria well hidden under a yew tree , Ihave replanted it and it looks a little happier now. Regards Puss

Thanks for the feedback everyone.Sorry AndrewR its not a callicarpa Ihave one of those and the berries are as Wyeboy says purple. Sorry again Spritzhenry Idont think its a Pernettya I think they have prickly leaves and this didnt. Like the dog by the way. Joey Ijust wish my computer skills were up to putting a picture on screen ,but the berries were about the size of hollies, the leaves look a bit like a hypericum and are plain green but the berries were definatly pink. However the boss of the polytunnel has said Ican put a couple of the plants in side for the winter the rest Iwill put outside and hope for the best. Thanks again everyone.

Is this the same plant which everyone and his dog seems to have as a houseplant? Ihave a very tall one which i cut up and planted the top ,which is growing nicely. The stem i also planted and it has two buds on it so i am keeping my fingers crossed.Iwill put fleece round it though.
