I would like to know what this tree is? Please.
Comments (3)Eryobotrya japonica, Loquat. It is not a wild plant in the UK so someone must have planted it in your Mum's garden. Since you are in London with its warmer micro-climate you may be lucky and get some of that fruit to ripen. Normally our summers are not hot enough. Here is a link that might be useful: Loquat...See MoreYou know you know too much about antique roses.....
Comments (15)I was reading to my daughter from an illustrated children's Bible, and we came to a scene where some ancient Jewish king was killed in his garden . . . yes, I know, a lovely scene to read about to a child anyway! . . . but then I turned the page and saw that in the illustration the desperate fellow was fleeing through formal beds of hybrid teas. No way!!! We also have a beautiful park in town that was especially designed for a "natural" look, with many types of ornamental grasses and species shrubs, rosa nitida, etc. The only false note in the whole thing is three hybrid teas that someone plopped down, all by themselves, at a very prominent juncture along one of the paths. You can tell by looking at them that the designer never intended for them to be there! I'll bet that the man who donated the park and named it in honor of his wife probably insisted on including those hybrid teas because they were his wife's favorite flower, or something like that. I shudder every time I see them!...See Moreunknown roses + know nothing about roses
