Durban-20121129-00876.jpg

Dais cotinifolia
Planted about 11years ago this tree produced 1 little pom pom flower last year.
This year we seem to have been luckier, we have about 6 flowers.
Not really suited to coastal areas but more an inland forest lover I presume this is the reason for poor flowering ability.
In full bloom in correct area this tree is magnificent - resembling one big pink pom pom - and smells like marshmallows!!
