A hardy evergreen ficus plants and are the number one choice for standardizing. The soft, white bark contrasts beautifully against the exuberant, glossy green foliage, making a feature out of your pleached hedge or standard topiary. It can tolerate a wide range of soils from clay to sandy, preferring a rich, moist loam in which it would thrive. They grow best in full sun to part shade and produce no flowers, making it a no mess hedging option!
Ficus roots are known to be quite vigorous, but can be controlled by keeping the foliage and head of the plant trimmed, roughly 2-4 times a year. They are best planted away from water pipes, easements and pools to avoid any root issues.

[one_half_last]
Blue Chalk is a visually appealing, spreading succulent with a distinct “blue” shade and interesting texture. Blue Chalk is native to South Africa and can easily tolerate harsh environments. It can be used in many forms ie: groundcover, in pots, as a border and to add contrast to your garden.
Blue Chalk is a very low maintenance plant that is drought tolerant and is also effective as a fire retardant! It is best in full sun through to part shade, is low growing and very quickly spreads to form a “carpet-like” effect.
