I brought one with me while shifting from Pune to Delhi, not sure of I'd get it here. Is doing OK, I guess the extreme climate and lack of regular feeding is helping to keep it in baby years longer than yours (9th year now and its still a kid). <br /><br />Interestingly in Gujarati / Marathi its called "meetha neem" or Sweet neem, I think its related to our fabled neem and has medicinal properties too.

Even a mild Sydney winter isn't their best time of year, so you're doing well to keep one going in the Adelaide Hills.Jamiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14653345793213312242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7797396120087729156.post-49854040085968352612015-10-18T21:56:19.457+11:002015-10-18T21:56:19.457+11:00Good Luck!

It struggles a bit through our cold Adelaide hills winter, and by September it looks very sad indeed but the hot weather has given it a boost and its re-shooting now. I don't know how it would go in the ground down here, even by my house it's in one of the warmest winter spots. Katie Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01678019955942895123noreply@blogger.com
