Feroniella

[gooeytek]

I haven't been able to find much on Feroniella in general, and I had this indoors under grow lights and a south-facing window during the winter.
It's outdoors now along with my other tropicals, and it's growing out nicely after I moved it into a wider training pot last month, and I'm looking for advice on pruning and training if anyone has any experience to share.

It's about 8" tall from the soil surface, and I haven't pruned any roots or branches since getting it last summer, but it did have some wiring that I removed while it was indoors over the winter.

Thanks guys, I like the gnarly bark for such a little tree. I checked out that guide, thanks. It's fairly recent too.

Where did you find the plant? It's perfect for bonsai...much like Serissa foetida, which I can't find locally anymore.

Add me to the 'never heard of it' list.
It's got nice small leaves and interesting bark

I got it from a seller in Florida, he had some much bigger ones too.
