    My thoughts too. The foliage can be quite big, and then they start to look like something else image

    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

    It's not. All the little privets look like that one. They've all been treated in the same way at the same time and I suspect that that one is something else. 

    I'm not asking for your advice and then arguing...I'm really not. image

    My Camellia looks like that but I wouldn't like to bet on it. image

    But you see that only happened last week. I ran out of same size pots.

    I think you're all right. I was just hoping that one of my pyracantha cuttings had survived years of neglect. image

    Privet. Probably just a different clone to the others.

    I think they are both privet,one is just doing much better than the other.
