One of six divided from a bush collected at a friend's house last fall. Just selecting some branches and setting some structure today.

For all of you that like Brazilian Rain Trees, after some research and info exchanges with @leatherback and others, I have found out that some BRT cultivars are really interesting. Maybe they are restricted to Brazil only, but I think this info below could help somehow. 1-) First a regular BRT...

I think this is a member of the berberis family i potted this up a few weeks b4 photo taken it seems to have taken off despite the severity of the 2nd winter which started 1 week later. I found this in the guttering of a block of flats 3 years ago.
