One thought on “October”

1. Athrotaxus selaginoides is rare, should be grown more often as it is nice, needs but prermanent humid soil. Podocarpus chingianus is near to P. macrophyllus, so leaves are large, about 8 cm long; this is Prumnopitys andina, from Chile, it resembles yew and can be used like this, but has greyish-green leaves, fruits are edible and good for jam. Nyssa chinensis has sure autumn colours but can not tolerate dry soils.
   Fruits of Chaenomeles speciosa make also a good, aromatic jelly.
