Green Plants Photography
Basila alba is a fast-growing, soft-stemmed vine, up to 10 m (33 ft) in height.Its dense, semi-succulent, heart-shaped leaves have a mild flavor and muslin texture. There are two types – green and red. Bacilla alba has a green stem with green leaves and Bacilla alba 'Robra' has a reddish purple stem. The leaves turn green and as the plant reaches maturity, the older leaves develop a purple color that starts at the base of the leaf and works its way to the tip. When the stem is crushed, it usually emits a strong aroma.
A deciduous to semi-evergreen vine that can be a ground cover but is often climbing and shrubby. Grows to 35 feet or more. There are 1-3 pairs of leaflets. They are roughly oval and coarsely toothed, dark green on the upper surface, lighter on the underside. Newly emerged leaves are purplish-red and turn light green to dark green as they mature. Leaves turn pale yellow or red in fall. Fruit fleshy, up to 5/8 inch in diameter, black and shiny when ripe. The fruit is attractive to wildlife but potentially toxic to humans.
Murraya paniculata can grow up to 23 feet (7 m) tall. However, in landscaping, small crops are often used as hedges. Small maria trees grow to 9 to 10 feet (about 3 meters) when left untrimmed. This type of hedge is usually trimmed to about 6 feet (2 meters high).
