tree ( photo / image / picture from featherphobia's Garden ) Any body know what this is. I purchase it as a house plant. Planted it in the yard and now it has blooms. This is not my pic found it on the net. it did not say what it was. Next pic is one I took of the foliage up close Unknown Tree Leaves ( photo / image / picture from featherphobia's Garden ) Unknown Tree ( photo / image / picture from featherphobia's Garden )
I know that it smells awful if you rub the leaves. I remember getting them in the flowershop, but never saw a name on them, I don't think. edited later. I remember now.... It's called a CHINA DOLL plant. Radermachera sinica is the scientific name. Sorry it took me so long to think of it. Obviously I knew it from long, long ago. it just popped into my head as I was trying to google the leaf characteristics.
You are welcome. I knew I had seen it before, but it took me a while to remember the name. glad I could help.
