| Description | Buxus sempervirens suffruticosa
A glossy green, rounded leaf box hedging plant
• Used for low to medium hedging and topiary
• Planted in the garden, along borders, pathways and in pots
• Tolerates shady positions | 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. | Syzygium australe 'Standard Lilly Pilly'
Standard Lilly Pilly are tough and beautiful with their multi coloured leaves. They are one of the easiest to grow and maintain "ball on a stick" topiaries, and you can prune into whichever shape your heart desires! Give a formal touch to a low maintenance, hardy garden or pop them in big pots and they'll look fantastic.
8" pot size
Our 3ft Standard Lilly Pilly have a 2ft clear trunk with approx. 1ft of foliage at the top.
To match your existing standards, measure the clear trunk from the base of the trunk to the beginning of the graft or foliage | Rubus x idaeus
Nootka Raspberries produce a full and heavy crop mid Summer and again in Autumn which allows you access to fresh, delicious raspberries more often! Growing to approx. 1.2m tall x .5 wide, they prefer a sunny position, with a rich, well drained soil and good Summer watering, and also grow well in pots or tubs. Get the kids to help gather the fruit and they will not be able to resist sneaking a few into their mouths for a boost of Vitamin C! |
| Content | If your looking for a small hedging plant then this is the one for you. Dutch Box is a dwarf box that grows with dense, glossy green foliage and works well in shaded areas.
Dutch Box also likes part shade in moist, well-drained soil, but will tolerate a wide range of soils and conditions. It should be clipped to maintain a formal shape.
Slight yellow discolouration of the leaves on Dutch box may occur during cooler months, but don't worry, this is normal! This is remedied by applying with Dolomite Lime, and a slow release fertilizer a month later. Or you can just leave your Dutch Box alone and it will come back lovely and green and spring.
