    Unusual tree

    I have a very unusual tree/bush in my garden called a Strawberry Tree (Arbutus Unedo) and at the moment it is sporting a lot of bright red fruit which do not taste like strawberries. It also has lovely bunches of white flowers at the same time. It was given to me by a friend many years ago as a small plant, her brother was Mary Barry's gardener and it was grown from a cutting from her tree/bush and this year is the first time it has so many fruits. It is about 10 ft tall now.

    Plant - it sounds beautiful and a very interesting tree. Is this the one?

                  Ooops - Sorry - I don't know what happened but our connection was dropping in and out at the time. It was the RHS website, so not dodgy.
