Last ones, I promise.....

This one is another of the (Singapore Holly) coccigeras. It is only about 10 inches tall and I have threaded some copper wire through some aquarium airline tubbing before tying down a branch with it. I know that I tend to keep lower branches that should probably come off and maybe one day I will remove them.....maybe. All of the Coccigeras have been trimmed hard too, although they do not get out of control as quickly as the Glabras (Barbados Cherries) do. They do not bloom as prolifically either....not for me anyhow.

So, there they are. I hope during the season to catch them at that ideal time where they still have a good shape from their last trim, are covered with flowers and red berries, and get some pics of them in that state for you.
