This Trichella dregeans should be very easy to take care of with plenty of water & sun....Thad

Could also be Trichelia emetica. This is the Natal Red Mahogany. Will be frost sensitive while

I've heard of it and have been trying to find one, but don't know too much about it.

Here's a link to some info I found.

The Bernecker's website has a little info on it, too.

May I ask, where did you find yours?

Here is a link that might be useful: Trichelia - Natal Mahogany

I love it. I have a 30+ foot tree, (6) trunks. It takes a lot of water. It is growing like mad toward the top of my atrium. It is from Africa. Fairly new to USA. Do a google search, using images. I bought it from a boutique nursery. I can go on for days about it. Keep it moist, I mist mine daily from top to bottom. I use Bamboo culms to maintain the trunks erect.

I just bought a natal mahogany 6 1/2 ft tall /5 trunks in a 14" diameter by 12" high container
should i put in bigger pot even if I do not need it to grow much?
Does always keeping it moist cause pest problems? or root rot? ...i heard aphids

Can anyone tell me where I can purchase a 6-7 ft tall natal mahogany for indoor use? I live in Oklahoma. Thank you.

I grow the natal mahogany should you be interested. Contact me at slane318@gmail.com

I just tossed both of my natal mahoganies..I loved them . they grew tall without a lot of sun BUT always infested with aphids..sticky leaves..I would have had to spray them weekly and not willing to do so. I kept them wet and away from any other plants. They were great but none of my other numerous plants have had aphids and I got sick of fighting them. Sad but glad to be free of them.

I've had one for about 10 years. It likes alot of water, as in, keep the bottom of container drip pan wet all the time. It grows very fast and gets top heavy quickly but has no problem being cut back. I left it outside in Oreogn for 6 months and it didn't bother it at all.
