The Greek Juniper Juniperus drupacea at the Folly Arboretum. A real 'wow' moment, closely followed by another when Pinus monophylla appeared around the next corner! #conifers #Hungary Conifer Society Trees and Shrubs Online

As it’s #RoaldDahlDay today, I though it very appropriate to post this, something to keep in mind 😄 (I would also like to take the opportunity to say that Roald Dahl’s parents were Norwegian 😉🇳🇴)

More beautiful than its ubiquitous cousin in almost every way, this Koelreuteria bipinnata is at its peak at the national #botanic #garden in Vácrátót, #Hungary where the local #bees are very grateful for it! Trees and Shrubs Online treesandshrubsonline.org/articles/koelr…

More Eucryphia! E. moorei from SE #Australia is too rarely planted even in suitable gardens. Its hybrid (with E. lucida) E. x hilleri is hardier and still has pinnate leaves (with fewer leaflets) and small flowers. Both flowering yesterday at #Kilmacurragh #Ireland RHSI
