This tree is about 30 feet tall and very lush which is typical.

It would not be a good place to relax when it has its thousands of purple fruit which stain everything.

Lovely Magnolia. Welcome to GOY.

Does it have a nice scent?

That's gorgeous!

No way...who buys them.

There are many varieties of Dracaena marginata. They are know by different varieties in different parts of the world. Commonly, the variety is put in place of the species. These plants can be trimmed to any size.

Marguerite,

I'm sure you're lucky enough to grow Mangosteen in your area. We cannot grow them here it just isn't consistently hot enough in winter and it is ultra-tropical. We can grow Garcinia xanthochymus (false mangosteen) which has a lot of the magical anti-oxidant properties that Mangosteen contains. It is an extremely beautiful tree also.

Man...., I've got to have one of these, it's stunning !

Great photo :)

My cousin (the beef farmer) was telling me that the wolves are getting very brave this year...following the does into the fields. He watched as the doe tried to draw the wolf away from where she left her fawn in the tall hay. He said it seemed to work for a while and then the wolf doubled back on her trail. He keeps a rifle nearby...he fired a shot into the air...and the wolf went back into the bush while the doe and fawn went opposite directions.He said he saw them together later up on the ridge.. lucky for her it was a lone wolf... not the pack training the young to hunt or it might have ended differently. He says the gobblers up there are getting plentiful and many are being killed on the roads.

Nice photo :)
