ID Please.

Apology accepted.

And I must apologise to pete also ... now that I look back, you gave me this name Arctostaphylos (Bearberry or Manzanita) in the other ID thread, and I am waiting on the people who have the shrub to return from England to answer some questions regarding it, in particular the blooms.

I notice in my book it is allied to the Arbutus and the blooms are identical.

 

Thats Ok LoL,
Still not convinced on yours roders, the leaves might be similar but the stems are not.

Now, pete, I will have to continue to disagree with you on roders' plant :D ... it is definitely Pernettya mucronata IMHO ... the leaves on your link look nothing like it.

I have had Pernettya and David and geoffhandley seem positive with the ID ?????

 

Cant help it LoL, they dont look right to me, I think this is a que for roders to go get more pics, a closeup of the berries, the stems etc.
If you can't be botherd roders then thats OK.
It just means you will never know for S U R E . :D

 

How you can say that this,

Does not resemble this,


Amazes me.

For starters the stems are both GREEN.

 

Well, yes, pete, that looks pretty close ... but this doesn't ... the leaves on the top picture go out, the leaves on the bottom picture go up. Maybe it's the angle of the photos ????

Yout link, not mine.

It's a difficult one, but I'll still go for my first thought.

 

Your looking at a non fruiting shoot, the pic I posted is on the same link.
Leaves go in all directions on all plants.
Going now, night.
