You'll go bonkers for the Blueberry Ash.

in elaeocarpus •  7 years ago 

The Blueberry Ash ( Elaeocarpus reticulatus ) is a native Australian tree found in the rainforests of the State of New South Wales and along the East Coast of Australia. It normally grows into a small tree, but can be trimmed to form a large shrub. it has deep green leaves and white to pink flowers with pretty fringed edges. After flowering it follows up with deep blue berries , which is the reason for it's name. Older leaves turn a red colour which adds to the attraction, and Birds are attracted to the berries. You guessed right again , because it does grow in Sydney , where i took this photo!new 2 012.JPG

Well explained about Blueberry Ash plant. Its deserve to home garden. Thanks for updating.

Nice description with beautiful flowers indeed. Awesome gardening post.

I wish I was more into plants when I visited Australia for a month way back in 2009. I'm sure I would have had a much richer experience. Instead, most of what I did was diving out in the reef and eating a lot of meat pies! Let's just say I got a little fat.

Why does Sydney have all the best shrubs and flowers and interesting trees?
Are all people there botanists and experts in horticulture?
