| Description | Passiflora edulis
Passionfruit is a tropical to subtropical vine that bears juicy, aromatic, and sweet to acidic fruit. The vine prefers a frost-free climate. It is a strong, vigorous, evergreen climber. A great spot for a passionfruit vine is out in the open, has full sun and no trees or competitive roots that are next to it. This plant is a fantastic addition to the garden and will provide lots of tasty fruit!
4''/10cm pot | Yucca elephantipes 'Spineless Yucca/Stick Yucca'
Yuccas would have to be one of the most versatile plants available. They will successfully grow in full sun, part shade, full shade or indoors. Grown for their bold and handsome shape, they feature tall woody stems ending in a crown of long sword shaped leaves. | Banksia marginata 'Silver Banksia'
A classic woody native Australian shrub, Banksias are great for a low maintenance garden and create interest with their recognizable flower cones. Silver Banksias will grow to the size of a large shrub and and good for screening. They're also great for coastal areas, as they're naturally found by the sea and tolerate sand and salt.
10" pot size. |
| Content | | Yuccas prefer dryer conditions with good drainage, but will still grow in most places; they will tolerate very hot periods without water or near freezing conditions. If grown in the full sun, the foliage becomes stiffer and bolder looking, giving it the trendy and fashionable Mediterranean look. If grown in shade or indoors they will develop a softer and longer leaf.
Yuccas can be planted in pots or in the garden, be grown indoors or outdoors and be planted in sun or shade. They look exotic and tropical and have a modern style. Yuccas perform a range of landscape functions. Plant as a centerpiece in a courtyard, as a feature plant in a pot or as a low maintenance stylish screen. Use as a hardy indoor feature either fully indoors, under plastic roofing or in undercover outdoors areas.
If you're doing up a garden or decorating a patio or deck with pot plants, get a Yucca Sculpture for an instant established look.
