| Description | 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. | Pittosporum tenuifolium
Another fantastic variety of Pittosporum, fast growing hedging or screening plant. Golden sheen features golden and green wavy leaves and black stems. Requires a full sun to part shade position for best results. Mature growth: 3m | Lomandra confertifolia 'Little Con'
