Yesterday Mike Harris and the Moose went to visit Mike (Bullwinkle) at the Bullwinkle Ranch Estate. There were many Palms, Cycads, Flowering Trees and other unusual plants all over the ranch. Since this is a croton forum we will focus on some of the interesting cultivars that were encountered.
1st Photo: Daybreak. This cultivar may have been a sport of Dayspring. It has simular coloring to Dayspring but the leaves are narrower and longer. Rob (
y230) saw this plant several months back and thought it to be a Dayspring. Bullwinkle brought an air layer to Moose Land and I was skeptical as well.
One month later, the Daybreak air layer from Bullwinkle had to be stepped up to a larger container. It is already flushing new leaves in excess of 20 inches. This is definitely a different cultivar in my opinion. This is the donor plant.
2nd Photo: Irresistible looking very nice located next to the pool and planted in front of a Stoplight.
