CREATING Interesting features

Podocarpus elongatus the Breeden River yellow wood is a species of conifer in the Podocarpaceae family. 

The Breede River yellowwood is a protected tree in South Africa

WHEN I toured the Dallas Arboretum, Podocarpus, in the Trial Garden had a beautiful shape and color. I hope it does well during the trial.

Autumn is a time of the year when the decrease in sunshine causes leaves to change colors. The two plants here are ones I thought to have a particularly beautiful muted blush in the leaves and flowers.
