  1. Myrsine aquilonia

  2. These trees come up at our place we even use it as a pot plant.
    We have no idear how they got here. Maybe in a load of mulchG

  3. Can you please post an image so that I can see if you have Myrsine aquilonia? This species is common in cultivation around Auckland now, and it does occasionally set viable seed and self establish - but I have not seen that very often. However, at Auckland University M. divaricata (in the strict sense) does naturalise freely, and that species (in the strict sense) has a superficial similarity to M. aquilonia (its quite different from the usual form of M. divaricata people know and refer that name to).

  4. Here is a photo provided by Joyce to the webmaster

  5. Well that is indeed Myrsine aquilonia - very interesting that it is appearing around your property. I have grown it in Auckland for 15 years (several accessions) and it has never done that before.
