User's notes

Bursaria spinosa subsp spinosa planted in error at The Fair site when supplied with other seedlings - note lack of hairs on back of leaves and general robustness of plant with larger leaves than the adjacent B. spinosa subsp. lasiophylla

Many thanks Barb, well done
if you have, please download photo of the 2 Bursaria subspecies plants side by side to show the different growth habit, you can download on either page the subsp spinosa or subsp lasiophylla and indicate which one is which. Please let me know if you don't have such a photo and I will take one. W

I did not take one of the two together in the one photograph, so please do that for me. Thanks.

I uploaded the 3rd photo which shows the above recorded Bursaria spinosa subsp. spinosa on the left and the local Bursaria spinosa subsp. lasiophylla on the right. Photo is not the best; I may aim for a better.
