Pseudopanax Sabre...

Not heard of this one, off to google :-)

We wanted something evergreen and a little bit different...

Lovely. Reminds me that I have to get some fleece.

I thought of looking on the internet for some this time..

Very nice leaves on this Pseudopanax 'Sabre'.

Love the slender leaves . . .

Thanks both, I wanted something evergreen...

Dottydaisy2:

Have you ever tried growing Pseudopanax crassifolious? I've seen some really beautiful trees at Strybing (now called San Francisco Botanical Gardens).

Delonix they had it on sale when we bought the above ...but, OH did not like it pity!!

It looks very strange when it's young, however, full-grown large trees are very beautiful! :>)

I can imagine....

Dotty, please tell me if this P. sabre has survived the cold and wet Winters ... am considering planting one soon.

Shirley it has doubled in size since this photograph, will try and photograph it for you, it is planted on a bank, which is free draining......was not covered this last winter....

Oh thanks Dotty ... it's driving me mad already looking at bare trellised fence ... :o(

I know how you feel lol
