Description	Pieris japonica Pieris 'Christmas Cheer' (Lily of the Valley Shrub) is an evergreen Winter flowering shrub that grows up to 2 metres tall and features glossy leaves and beautiful pink drooping flowers. The newer foliage is usually red in colour. Pieris is a good all round shrub for cooler climates. It can be trimmed to a smaller formal shape or left to grow larger. Happy in full sun or part shade, Pieris does need to be kept well watered.	Luma apiculata Myrtus Luma is the medium to tall hedge with real traditional style. A lot of people believe the only fast growing larger hedge with fine foliage is the Pittosporum. It is an extraordinarily versatile plant suitable for hedging, screening, topiary, or as a specimen tree, but its small, aromatic leaves respond so well to pruning that it is commonly used as a hedge. Myrtus luma also makes a wonderful specimen tree if left unpruned. With age it forms an outstanding trunk with cinnamon brown branches. Its bark peels to reveal streaks of pink and beige. What a plant! It really should be seen more in Australian gardens.
