| Description | Corylus avellana
Halls Giant is a robust and established hazelnut variety known for its large, flavorful nuts, perfect for eating fresh or for roasting and cooking. To ensure successful pollination, consider planting varieties like Barcelona, Cosford, or Wanliss Pride alongside it. Though this tree has both male and female flowers, they don’t always bloom simultaneously, so mixing varieties is beneficial.
Choose a sunny spot with well-drained, well-prepared soil for the best growth. Make sure to plant the bud union above the soil line. Water thoroughly and keep the soil moist until the tree is well-established. When planting, fertilise and then again once you see new growth. Pruning after planting is also recommended to promote vigorous new growth. | Malus purpurea
The Purple Crab Apple makes a handsome small tree, quite round topped in maturity. With beautiful flowers which are a deep, red-purple colour creating an effect that looks almost unbelievably rich.
A great specimen tree, in Autumn the Purple Crab Apple has dark purple fruit and leaves which turn shades of yellow and red.
13" pot size. | Acer palmatum dissectum 'Chantilly Lace'
Chantilly Lace produces beautiful, small lace-like leaves. In Spring, orange/red foliage emerges changing to green in Summer. They then change to golden yellow/red in Autumn. This is a vigorous and extremely hardy variety. Plant in full sun for best Autumn colour. | Banksia integrifolia
Banksia integrifolia or ‘Coastal Banksia’ is a hardy native found down the Eastern coastline of Australia. Often seen in windswept and sculptural shapes along beach fronts, when placed in a less hostile environment, they can become quite beautiful, bushy specimen plants. They grow anywhere between 4m - 10m and 1m - 5m wide, depending on their environment. During autumn and winter their yellow flowers form into large cones, rich with nectar. These stunning flowers attract lots of bird life, particularly cockatoos and honey-eaters. Coastal Banksia is a slow grower and can handle a wide range of soil types.
10" pot size. | Grevillea hybrid
Forest Rambler is a gorgeous, fast growing shrub which has a spread of approximately 2-3 meters. It blooms yellow to pale pink flowers in Spring and bears dark green, oval shaped foliage.
Forest Rambler can cope with reasonably cold temperates as well as sub tropical climates. It is drought and frost tolerant. Great for mass planting. Likes well drained soils. | Physocarpus opulifolius
A hardy, deciduous shrub with lobed, burgundy leaves that bears masses of clusters of red flowers in spring. Perfect for adding a splash of colour to the garden and does equally well in garden beds or containers. Tolerant of dry conditions. (Would work perfectly with its 'sister' Angel's Gold Ninebark)
Plant in a well drained and well worked soil. Take care to plant the bud union above the soil level. Water in well and keep soil moist until tree is established. Fertilise when planting and again after new growth appears. Prune to shape if necessary.
