Hello everyone. I found this tree at a local nursery and thought it was too pretty to pass up. Unfortunately nobody had any information on it, so I’m in the dark, as I have no idea how to take care of it. I’ve attached a few pictures and would be interested as to any feedback on identification and general care, as well as placement inside or outside the house. Thanks in advance for any replies!

Looks like a Serissa Variegated in exposed roots (neagari) style.

Hi there,

Just a suggestion... Maybe this time of the year, taking that tree outdoors wouldn´t be such a bad idea. Give it a thought, please.

Thanks for the information. Now that I know what type of tree it is, I’m going to spend some time reading about it and trying to figure out how best to proceed. Any suggestions on where to locate it outside would be appreciated. Also, would it do okay in a south facing window as opposed to outside? I live in Southern. California where it gets pretty hot in the summer. I was worried it might dry the soil out to fast...
