| Leptospermum obovatum ‘Lemon Bun’ Tea Tree
A small dense mounding shrub with soft lemon-scented foliage with a profusion of lime-cream flowers that attract butterflies and provide food for insect-foraging small birds such as Scrub Wrens. It is perfect for low hedging, with minimal shaping required; may be planted beside pools and bog gardens; and can be clipped regularly to create a formal ball in a decorative container. Grows approx 1x1m | Pittosporum Tobira "Japanese Mock Orange"
Japanese Mock Orange is a shrub that gets its name from its clusters of small white flowers which have a sweet fragrance similar to orange blossoms. Mock orange is a plant for all seasons. The evergreen foliage has a smooth, leathery texture and forms in whorls around the stems. Perfect for plating near patios or porches where the gorgeous foliage, fragrant flowers and frequent butterfly visitors can be experienced up close.
Japanese Mock Orange is an excellent specimen, foundation, or border plant. Looks beautiful when grouped or massed in a shrub border. Grows to approximately 3m in height. Loves a full sunlight position. |
