The weird anarchistic polycule in one of my shrubs seems to be expanding.. after doing the spring garden cleanup, there now seem to be six (6) species growing from the same root commune..
- Magnolia (the OG inhabitant of the plot)
- Elderberry (been there for ages)
- Ilex/holly (the spiky poison berry bush)
- mountain ash / rowan tree
- false wine (that I'm failing to evict year after year)
- the newcomer, stem coloration and tiny leaves look a lot like hazelnut.. we'll see in a few months.
