Looking for a Ming aralia (Polyscias Fruticosa)

[markbudde]

Hi folks. I'm looking for a small ming aralia (Polyscias fruticosa) or cutting. Some vendors sell the "parsley leaf" variety, but I'm looking for the classic slender leaf form. As far as I can tell, these haven't really been sold in the last 20 years. However, I know some people with green thumbs still have the old plants. If anyone has one that they will be trimming, or knows where I could find one, please shoot me a PM and let me know.
Thanks a bunch,
Mark

Are these the ones we used to grow in our dorm windows because they looked, at a glance, like pot plants and so we knew they'd, uh, annoy the campus police? If so, I want one, too!

No, those are probably False aralias (Dizygotheca elegantissima). The ming aralias have a more wilted look to them; the leaves slightly curl in towards the ground.
