I'm looking for Mock Orange for my brother, he's getting into plants now!
Please look at my trade list, I think I have more things but not listed there.
Wanted Mock Orange (Murraya paniculata)
Just bumping. Nobody has any?
CaptMicha,
I have a huge mock orange bush with lovely white aromatic blooms in the spring. It does not have any sprouts or suckers at the base, but if you are interested in cuttings, I would be glad to send you several for postage. Let me know. Shirley
CaptMicha,
Please check your email. Shirley
Aargh! I just saw this today!
I've sent you the PM stamp for the Passiflora you offered (thank you!) and....if you don't find one, I have a small (3") pot of Murraya paniculata that I could send you.
I've never heard of M. paniculata being called 'Mock orange' but have seen it called 'Orange jasmine'.....so are we talking about the same plant?
Just let me know!

Mock Oranges
Depending where you live, this common name can refer to three plants:-
Murraya paniculata
Choysia ternata
Philadelphus
Murraya paniculata
(also called Orange Jessamine)
This common hedging plant produces an abundance of white perfumed blossoms. Related to the citrus, the fragrance is reminiscent of orange blossoms.
Leaves are pinnate (ie have small segments) and the bushiness has lended itself to many landscape uses.
Sometimes a small orange fruit is produced, however it is not edible.
Gardeners can purchase three forms of this plant
M. paniculata ‘Exotica’ – grown from cuttings this is undoubtedly the best garden plant for hedges in warm climates. It rarely produces fruit or seed.
M. paniculata – grown from seed, this from is much more straggly and untidy. It is abundant with orange fruit and prolifically sets seed – potential weed.
M. paniculata ‘dwarf’ – this little cutie only grows to about 1 m maximum and has very fine leaves. Ideal for pots or small hedges.
Oh no, the dwarf variety would definally have been best for bonsai. Thanks for pointing this out!
Do you know if yours is the dwarf kind Nan? Does it have fine leaves?
I honestly don't know....it wasn't even tagged, but I do know it's the M. paniculata...in some shape or form, lol!
CM,I have one in a 2 gallon pot,about 6 ft tall ,and just loaded with buds,but would be pretty costly to ship I bet!!
Lol. I bet shipping would be more than you paid for the plant.
Whew...that would be a tough one to ship!!
If you're interested in the small one I have, CaptMicha, just let me know your address....I'd be more than happy to send it to you, and it shouldn't cost much.
Well when I bought it several years ago,it was just a rooted cutting in a 2 inch pot,about 99 cents!
Thanks, but no thanks Nan. Cicada is sending me a whopping amount of cuttings!
CaptMicha, I need your address that you sent me I lost it. I am Minihostalover and wanted one of your butterfly bush Dartmoor. I tried to email you but maybe you didn't receive it. I will send your 3.85 as soon as I receive your address.
Thank,
Cindy
