| Description | Acacia dealbata
Silver Wattles are fast growing native Australian trees with silver foliage and masses of bright yellow, sweet scented flowers in Winter/Spring.
Native to the more Southern parts of Australia, Silver Wattles prefer cool moist conditions and a deep soil to grow into a full tree and reach its maximum height of 10 meters plus. However, this tree has been widely introduced to the Mediterranean and other drier regions, and with less watering simply stays as a smaller tree/large shrub. Withstands multiple soil types, including clay. Frost and snow tolerant, and bird attracting.
| Rhaphiolepis indica

| Content | | Rhaphiolepis indica 'Oriental Pearl' Indian Hawthorn
The attractive glossy foliage is dark green in colour and contrasts well with the massed display of flowers. Grows in full sun to partial shade with best flowers produced in full sun. Hardy and adaptable to most soils but prefers enriched, well-drained soils and appreciates an application of chunky mulch. Resistant to salt spray, and once established (with early good watering) will withstand dry conditions for extended periods. Is heat and frost tolerant to a degree. Excellent choice for pots, low hedging, massed planting in shrubberies or around pools. | Rhaphiolepis delacouri x indica 'Apple Blossom' Indian Hawthorn
Indian Hawthorn Apple Blossom best performs in a full sun to part shade position. It thrives in clay, loam or sandy soil which makes it very easy to grow! It can handle moderate frost and salt spray (near coastal areas). Usual flowering times are between Spring and Winter. |
