Bursera Waterman microphylla x fagaroides | Natural hybrid | Tall Specimen

This is a naturally occurring hybrid of bursera fagaroides and bursera microphylla from a locale near the Waterman Mountains in Central America. Pretty uncommon! Leaves are longer and a bit wider than microphylla, like an elongated narrow fagaroides leaf. A wonderful caudiciform tree from Baja California and the Sonoran Desert. Delicate, tiny, fern-like leaves adorn this graceful plant and puts out red/orange berries in the spring. Smooth and peeling orange/beige bark. Forms an interesting,complex caudex and is a wonderful bonsai candidate. Highly aromatic, this tree is also known as the Mexican Frankincense Tree. Related to Boswellia, the bark, leaves, and fruit smell strongly of Frankincense. HUGE rooted branches in 1 gallon! Very tall, like the first photo. 

Shipped bare root, wrapped carefully. PLEASE water it generously! It will be shipped with most of the soil around the roots. Please try not to disturb them as much as possible. Do not put this plant in the sun right away- shade and peace for at least a week to recover.
