Griselinia ruscifolia

Griselinia littoralis is a wonderful evergreen tree (it pretends to be a shrub for a few years
but don't be fooled) and it has obscured the other members of the genus. I was aware that they existed, but
hadn't looked any further than that.
In recent years I have seen odd plants in some of the more adventurous gardens and was delighted when I was offered this one.
Griselinia ruscifolia comes from Chile, Argentina and southeastern Brazil. I'm currently growing it in a pot in the
Hedychium house because I'm not sure how hardy it will be (or how big it will get).
