Hi everyone !
I grew these (apparently) Pittosporum seedlings from seeds collected from street-lining trees.
Since then I've been trying to determine their species, but with no success at all.
I'm especially puzzled by the pink/lilac flower color on the parent trees, which doesn't match any P. species description I read about.
I know there are at least several tens of natural occurring species of Pittosporum,
but still wonder if I'm in presence of a botanical species, a botanical variety or a cultivar.
I'm very much hoping and would be very pleased if someone on the forum could help in the ID task.
I join a selection of photos.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Miguel
