Re: Heathcote and the Jim Smith collection
Wow, thank you Regi, what inspiration!!!
I didnt even know that you get a dwarf schefflera, is it from Hawaii?
I noticed that Portulacaria afra is labled wrong, Portulacaria afra is NOT a Jade tree, its a 'Spekboom' (Porkbush) or Elephant bush the first name giving to it was by the Zulu's - iGwanitsha.
Carassula ovata, or new name Crassula argentea is the Jade tree, Botterboom (Butter tree) Money plant or the first name given to it was by the Khoi - t'karkai. ( you say the t' with a click of the tongue.)

Yep theres a dwarf, I have both variety's the dwarf grows much slower though. I also agree with the Portulacaria being called a jade, but most people use that as a common name still. I think even home depot labels it as such. Also the rain tree is labeled wrong, well the name changed to Chloroleucon tortumAndre Beaurain wrote:Wow, thank you Regi, what inspiration!!!

I would never use Home Depot or any of the big box stores as a guide to naming plants.
