| I received this in a trade and have forgotten what it was and the person that sent it to me. It sure is bad to get old but it beats the alternative. It has grown since this picture and now is about five feet high and has yellow blooms and a slender type of bean. My wife said I told her it was a coffee plant? Of course I don't remember telling her that either. Jim

| Possibly Cassia - the foliage and description of the seed pod are right for that plant. |

| Definitly not a coffee plant, perhaps an Adenanthera? Do the limbs periodically die and fall off for no reason? |

| Hey! I see that one hasn't been added to the data base yet.hint,hint. ;)
I went there to see how hardy they are. I grew one from seed this year and don't know if I should protect it this winter or not? Anyone know? Thanks, Joy |
