I just love podacarpus but have hard time distinguishing from oleander which I hate because it's so tropical and poisonous.
Bt every time I plant podarcarpus on my property when come back from Oahu it's like I never planted anything it's just dissapeared. So going to plant some more in more open sun and better drainage. But I think might be better to find existing stand of trees and sweep up the dead leaves under the podacarpus. I think the ground cover protect the trees like my other fave tree- Ironwood. So u spred the debris in the middle of the planting plus probably have seeds for more podacarpus. So be dissapointing my new batch of seedlings disappeared too.[?]
