A friend has cuttings of a plant growing in a pot. When I asked where it came from I was sent to an abandoned nursery on Samford Road at Keperra.
The plant there is a climbing / scrambling shrub, much like a bougainvillea and, with clusters of short spines or thorns in the leaf axils. The 'flowers' are dull creamy looking, ageing to papery in texture and not showy like a bougainvillea. The leaves are soft and leathery and every one of them is an insipid yellow colour except for the new growth which is flushed with pink (see photo of cutting, ignore the oleander mixed in with it). It just looks like a weed.
Can you identify this and tell me what it is?
Thanks!
