| Description | Nasturtium features bright yellow blooms.
4"/10cm pot | Boronia megastigma
Brown Boronia is a small shrub that reaches heights of around a meter, and while it can be short lived, it is worth growing for the beautifully perfumed flowers in Spring. The best garden growing conditions are in dappled shade, in moist but well drained soils, and it loves a cool root run, which can be ensured with a good layer of mulch.
6" pot size. | Grevillea hybrid
A compact and evergreen shrub, this delightful plant is cherished for its beautifully dense and fine-textured foliage. It showcases an impressive display of bright pink to red flowers, primarily blooming in spring, with occasional bursts of colour throughout the year. The small, spider-like blossoms emerge at the tips of the branches, drawing in a variety of nectar-loving birds and insects, and infusing your garden with lively energy.
6"/14cm pot | Robinia x ambigua
Common names: Dark Pink Locust, False Acacia, Pink Cascade
Robinia Casque Rouge is a spectacular variety, widely grown for its delicate but abundant colourful blooms. With breathtakingly beautiful crimson/purple large scented flowers it is quite a stunner.
Casque Rouge thrives on any soil, and tolerates urban pollution and prefers non-windy locations.
12''/30cm pot | Portulacaria afra, Money Tree
Jade Succulent is an extremely common plant in Australian gardens and has been for some time. Not only is it easy to grow, you'll find it's hardy in most conditions, and really only struggles when over-watered. Preferring a loose draining soil, the Jade Succulent is one of the more resilient succulents when it comes to things like clayey soil. A very attractive addition to any garden! | Cotinus Coggygria, Smoketree
Purple Smoke Bush is a gem in the garden thanks to it's unique blend of colours that change throughout the seasons. A large deciduous shrub or small tree, its beautiful eye-catching Spring foliage is green overlaid with purple. Summer brings deep purple foliage that then turns deep orange and bronze in a burst of glory for an Autumn show.
Purple Smokebush gets its name from the clouds of smoke-like purple and pink "flowers" it produces in early Summer. These are very beautiful themselves, and are prized along with the foliage by florists. Grows best in full sun to partial shade and it is tolerant of drought and most soils, making it a great addition to many gardens.
