Description

Sarcococca confusa

Sweet Box is a bushy evergreen with glossy leaves that is perfect for medium to low hedges but not as well known and used as it should be. During Winter, fine and delicate, sweetly scented, creamy flowers appear followed by shiny black berries. Sweet Box has shiny, deep green, foliage and this variety usually only grows to a maximum height of around 4ft. Unless you want a tightly clipped formal hedge or border, it needs very little trimming. Sweet Box likes a position of both full sunlight and part shade in a sheltered location. If your hedge travels under a shady spot, try Sweet Box - it is quite happy in shade! It should be ideally planted in moist, well draining soil. 8''/20cm pot

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.
Copper Earthenware pots for indoor and outdoor use with feature plants. Great alone or try clustering different sizes to make an attractive feature.
  • Waterproof and frost-tolerant
  • Lightweight
