PODOCARPUS SPECIES
Podocarpus polystachyus/ Jati Laut at Bandar Damansara , Kuantan, Malaysia
For the first time I had come across Podocarpus being used as hedge and I had no choice but to turn around to snap few photographs. It turns out to be very nice and the hedge reminds me of Taxus baccata, one of the very popular topiary plants in Europe. Podocarpus is quite a popular topiary (Bonsai) in Malaysia but not many gardeners using it as hedges.
Malay:Pertama kali saya terjumpa pokok jenis Podocarpus digunakan sebagaipokok pagar dan saya terpaksa berpatah balik dan ambil kesempatan untuk tangkap beberapa keping gambar. Pokok ini sangat cantik untuk dijadikan pokok pagar. Pokok ini menyerupai pokok Taxus baccata, salah satu pokok yang digemari di negera Eropah sebagai pokok pagar dan topiari. Pokok Podocarpus biasanya digunakan untuk topiary (Bonsai) tetapi jarang sekali digunakan untuk pokok pagar.
