You'll love this rugged little native tree as it has so many good qualities : bright orange berries, bronzey-green new leaves, a shady round crown, and adaptability to a wide range of soils and climates. Plus it's on many councils' approved planting lists as the roots aren't invasive and it rarely grows high enough to interfere with overhead wires.
It's also a food plant for the native speckled lineblue butterfly.
