@sherrisgarden this is the one I saw the other day (in Chiang Mai). I suppose the question is.... when does a bush (or a shrub) become a tree?

It is pretty spectacular & only the second one I've seen this size. Must have been easily 8ft tall and probably more than that wide too. @juliesgarden @flof1952 @debs69

Haha !! Good question. It's beautiful!! Still bigger than what my Nana had. If I could get mine to grow half that size I'd be happy !!! Thanks for posting @jeatacake

My tutor has one of these. Interesting story behind how it started life as a graft chimera.

It's awesome Elaine. Everyone should have one! Now I might get a tad peckish when out in the garden from time to time, but don't worry, I'll resist these 😉 @wagsmomthompsonbtinternetcom

Yes I deed Rich, I looked it up & it's an amazing thing to happen. If it occurred more readily, can you imagine the possibilities? 😮 There are extremely rare cases of if happening in humans too! @richard.spicer.7906

Thanks Sharon. It's actually a film on the inside of the glass on one side of my conservatory. Good for privacy & hiding the wheelie bins on the other side! 😄 @sharonhayden

Oh I love those transparent kind of opaque things like tracing paper and can make you feel like you’re in the tropics when the sun shines! - did you get my email?
