DIAMOND LEAF QUEENSLAND PITTOSPORUM SEEDS X 10
Auranticarpa rhombifolia (formerly Pittosporum rhombifolium) is a tree to 25 metres in its natural habitat but usually smaller in cultivation. It has a smooth, grey bark and glossy green foliage with a districtive diamond or rhomboid shape. The leaves are about 75 mm long with toothed margins. Small, white, perfumed flowers occur in terminal clusters in summer and are followed by colourful orange berries (5mm dia) in autumn and winter. The berries are carried on the tree for several months and each contains 2-3 black seeds.
The species is well established in cultivation in temperate, sub-tropical and tropical climates where it forms an attractive medium sized tree which is not too large for suburban gardens. It is hardy in fairly rich soils although it will not withstand waterlogged conditions and performs best with ample moisture.
Propagation is usually carried out from seed which germinates readily without treatment. Seedlings may be slow growing for the first few years. Cuttings are also successful.
Auranticarpa rhombifolia is a rainforest tree of eastern Australia. Known as the diamond leaf pittosporum, this tree is planted in many parts of Australia as an ornamental. The white flowers and orange fruit make it a most appealing street or garden tree. Other common names include hollywood, diamond leaf laurel, white myrtle and white holly.
Australian botanists recently[when?] examined the large genus Pittosporum and decided the more northerly examples are significantly different from those in the south. Subsequently, a new genus was created Auranticarpa, which means "gold fruit".
The range of natural distribution is on red–brown basaltic soils from Richmond River, New South Wales (28° S) to Forty Mile Scrub National Park (18° S) in tropical Queensland.
Description
A small tree, up to 25 metres in height and a trunk diameter of 45 cm. The bark is grey, irregular, not smooth and almost corky. Leaves alternate, toothed in uneven patterns in the top half of the leaf. Not toothed closer to the stem. Rhomboid in shape, 5 to 10 cm long and 4 to 7 cm wide. Midrib, lateral and net veins easily seen on both the upper and lower leaf surface.
Flowers and fruit
Small white flowers occur in a terminal corymb from November to January. Fruit is an orange pear shaped capsule, 9 mm long with two or three oval black seeds. Fruits mature from February to May. Germination from fresh seed is slow, taking up to four months with around a third of seeds sending out roots and shoots.
Uses
A very popular ornamental tree. It needs a well drained soil. Full sun is required for a significant display of orange fruit.
