Yep,
I've been at it again, went over to my favourite garden center today, collected 9 more littl'uns, three of which I am not sure of.

First two I think are Ligustrum japonica? Yep? Nope? Or whatever, do you know?

And another, haven't got the slightest clue as to what this one might be?

Perhaps a Buxus of sorts? Do you know?

Hello all,

Since I uploaded the picture of two trees above, I have discovered that they are as stated below. This is a page out of my bonsai register, unfortunately the page-format is slightly lost.

Still hoping to hear about the other tree with much smaller leaves.

CARISSA MACROCARPA.

Genus: Apocynaceae - Dogbane.
Common name: Amatungulu.
Big Num-num.
Natal Plum.
Christ’s Thorn.

Style:
Size:

Container: Temporary plastic pot.

Origin: Collected bonsai nursery stock, Osdorp, January 3 2003.
Age:
Indigenous: Tropical Africa.

Particular characteristics:
Evergreen. The Natal Plum is a spiny South African shrub used as a hedge or free standing, it has interestingly formed branches and shiny deep-green leaves, offset by white and pink flowers.

Training activities:
