| Description | Casuarina glauca
Casuarina Cousin It is a dense ground cover with a cascading habit; aptly named after the very popular Adams family character- the foliage flows over anything! Great for rockeries or spilling down embankments and over the side of pots, and will flow over rocks and hillocks creating spectacular effects. A very easy care plant that does well in a wide range of soil types. The dense foliage will deter weed growth, adding to the low maintenance aspect.
8"/20cm pot size. | Polygala myrtifolia x dalmaisiana
Polygala Dazzler is a shrub that originates from South Africa and has attractive, almost year round, purple pea-like flowers on light green foliage. It makes a great flowering hedge.
Polygala Dazzler prefers a well-drained position, but tolerates poor soils, frost and dry conditions. Pruning in early Spring will encourage bushiness and flowers. Best feed regularly with a slow release fertiliser.
10" pot size. | Pelargonium zonale
Geranium Savannah Pink Mega Splash produces fragrant, multi-coloured pink flowers with dark green, velvety foliage. The perfect addition to your cottage-style garden, being drought and frost tolerant when established. Mature growth: 40cm x 40cm.

Great for rockeries or spilling down embankments and over the side of pots, and will flow over rocks and hillocks creating spectacular effects. A very easy care plant that does well in a wide range of soil types, and from cold temperate to subtropical areas. The dense foliage will deter weed growth, adding to the low maintenance aspect. Can take some salt, so is good for coastal gardens. Tolerant of dry spells once established, frost tolerant. Heavy frost may brown the top foliage, but new growth will shoot away in spring. | | |
