I did a search on wiki and it said it is being threatened by habit loss and restricted to Canary Island. I don't know how it made it to SF, CA. http://www.arbolesornamentales.es/Pittosporum.htm It could also look like this but the leaves are different: /photos/54527470@N00/5475461832 This message was edited Dec 11, 2012 6:34 PM
