Description

Cupressus macrocarpa

Monterey Cypress or Western District Cypress a large evergreen tree conifer which lives long and grows large in perfect conditions. Native to coastal California, it suits coastal conditions and has the unique tendancy to be "sculptured" by the wind over time as it grows. The foliage grows in dense sprays, bright green in color. The leaves are scale-like and produced on rounded shoots. Makes a good windbreak in coastal areas.

Plectranthus plepalila

Mona Amethyst (Spur flower) is a particularly attractive variety that does not spread like other members of the family, but rather forms a neat low shrub with an upright, erect habit. Numerous spikes of rich purple-pink coloured flowers begin to appear from late Summer through Autumn complementing the ornamental foliage of deep green leaves with dark wine purple coloured undersides. This fast growing plant is best placed in a full sun to part shade location.
