Description	Hydrangea macrophylla 'Saturn' Saturn hydrangea is a ‘mop head’ form with bi-color umbels.  It is part of the ‘Star Line’ selection form Europe.  Each sepal has a deep crimson centre with a thick white margin.  Like most of the mop heads the color can be changed by creating an acidic soil. Saturn like most Hydrangeas are tolerant of most frosts and coastal conditions.  They will grow in full sun but need to be kept well watered and prefer part shade to filtered sun.  Plants can be dead headed when finished flowering but if in heavy frost areas it is best to leave the flowers on until late winter. It likes a good feed with Osmocote in spring.  If the bush requires a prune, remove the oldest stems from the base and allow the new young ones to grow away.  Saturn grows to around 1m high and produces masses of flowers in mid summer. 6'' pot	Cercis chinensis 'Avondale' 'Avondale' Redbud are an erect feature tree or shrub with a rounded habit and feature heart shaped foliage.  It is a very showy variety with dark pink flowers. 'Avondale' is a gorgeous small feature tree, ideal for large pots or suburban garden.
