mauGR1 Posted April 30, 2019 Share Posted April 30, 2019 I've got some plants accidentally growing in my little garden, the first looks like a potentially big tree, grown on some crack of the concrete, the second is a shrub, which is oddly thriving at the base of the bamboo, a hard place to survive for any other plants. Is there anyone here who recognize them ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steven100 Posted April 30, 2019 Share Posted April 30, 2019 just chop them of at ground level or pull them out by hand if possible. They are weeds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cmsally Posted April 30, 2019 Share Posted April 30, 2019 The yellow flower is Ixora. The small tree looks like a potentially large tree. One of the parasitic type trees or the ones that throw their roots down such as the Bo tree maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will check "Ixora", and i was also thinking the other one could be a variety of "Ficus", it looks extremely resilient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmsally Posted April 30, 2019 Share Posted April 30, 2019 If you do a search for images of small Bo tree you will see some small trees growing in cement cracks. They look very similar to yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
