| Description | Cercis canadensis 'Forest Pansy'
The Forest Pansy is an incredibly beautiful small growing deciduous tree. Its rich purple heart-shaped foliage turns vibrant yellows, oranges, reds and purples in the autumn time and in the spring its bare, almost black branches are aflush with magenta blossoms. It is an ideal feature shade tree for a lush suburban, cottage or Japanese style garden.

For care instructions, features and more, check out Additional Information below | Ulmus parvifolia
The bark of the Chinese Elm is a real stand out feature, as the tree sheds it in patches, creating the effect of a tapestry of varying browns and greys. Foliage is lush, shiny and green, and the tree is semi deciduous, turning golden in autumn, and keeping its leaves in warmer areas. It has also been noted by many Aussie gardeners in recent years that native birds enjoy the fruit of the Chinese Elm. | Philodendron hastatum
A very rare and unusual philodendron with silver, almost metallic-looking foliage. Has a strong climbing habit, so needs a post, log, trellis, or tree to grow on. Set the Philodendron in a location with bright, indirect sunlight. Find a position near a window where the sun’s rays never actually touch the foliage. While it’s normal for older leaves to yellow, if this happens to several leaves at the same time, the plant may be getting too much light. On the other hand, if the stems are long and leggy with several inches between leaves, the plant probably isn’t getting enough light
