Foxtail Agave or Agave attenuata
It's one of the agaves, not sure which one.
Oh, it is not a dizygotheca elegantissima, false aralia, or any type of fruit.
I am looking for a better ID. Hopefully a Latin name too. I was told this was a 'nutmeg plant'. Or tree actually. It is not a real nutmeg but I guess the seed pod is a little similar. It is a very small, tender tree and only has one red flower at a time. Then flower forms a seed pod and after, much time, ripens, falls off and the cycle starts over. Of course I replant the seeds and have several 'trees' growing together. Anyone?
Llewelyn Hawthorn, sorry I couldn't get the comment with the pictures
That is a cool looking tree with the berries and knarled look of the branches. I would love to have 3 branches with the berries to use as decoration for Christmas. ( I love having branches as part of my decor. I have some Red Dogwood branches in a pot with white christmas lights at the base in my frontroom.
How long do the branches get???
Jaymee, I am in Junction City, Or. I am sure I am right about the identity of your plant. Does it have white flowers that have an awful smell? I have a big tree and right now the berries are huge and bright red. More common ones have orange berries. The berries will last for months and it will lose it's leaves in late winter, the tree with no leaves in the dead of winter but with all the berries is spectacular. I'll try to take a picture of mine tomorrow.
