Prunus cerasifera elvins

Tis called a plum! But a fruiting plum it is not! The Elvins Flowering Plum is a perfect little round deciduous tree with stunning autumn colours, come spring time pops of blossom unfurl into white flowers which magically change colour to coral pink. What a journey! The best option for a smaller garden as this tree may be little but mighty in personality. Loves full sun and moist well draining soil. Grows approximately H: 3 Meters W: 3 Meters 8"/20cm pot size.

Coprosma repens

Coprosmas are evergreen shrubs grown for their colourful foliage, which turns even more vibrant in the winter, so you can still have stunning colour through the barer months. They are ideal for hedging, borders, colour contrasts for any garden and pots. Suitable for coastal conditions and frost, they enjoy both full sun and part shade. This makes them great for underplanting trees like magnolias or ornamental pears. Coprosma "Evening Glow" is a multi-coloured variety that has a mixture of red, pink, green, gold and dark purple all on the one leaf. 10"/25cm pot size.

Bird of Paradise are native to South Africa, and are very hardy and can be grown in full sun to part shade. They get their name from their exotic blue/orange flowers that resemble the head of a colourful tropical bird.

Bird of Paradise have large, lush foliage and look great when used in rockeries and interplanted with yuccas and agaves. Great for creating a tropical feel in the garden.

We refer to these as "Flowering Bird of Paradise" or Strelitzia Bird of Paradise (a bit of a mouthful that comes from their botanical name) because there is another variety of Bird of Paradise called Giant Bird of Paradise. These have much bigger leaves, are taller growing, and are often planted together with Flowering Bird of Paradise to create a multi-layered, tropic garden effect even as far south as Melbourne.
