| Description | Pittosporum tenuifolium
Perfect Pillar is a bushy, dense, fast growing Pittosporum with a neat rounded habit and glossy pale-green foliage. Although brown, the flowers are quite insignificant but offer a honey smell during Spring. Perfect for screening and hedging. Grows to 3-4m in height and 3m wide. | Casuarina glauca
Cousin It is so named because of its full, cascading growing habit, resembling "Cousin It" from the old television show, "The Adam's Family!". It is an extremely tough Australian Native groundcover which grows over anything in its way, and looks especially interesting planted over uneven areas, giving it a different look to anything else you ever could plant. It is drought hardy and can also tolerate light frost and semi-damp areas and is happy in full sun through to part shade.
It will only grow to 30cm but has a spread of approx. 1.5m and is useful for weed suppression. "Cousin It" would also look fabulous, planted in retaining walls, in pots and over rocks. An unusual and intriguing plant. | Austromyrtus dulcis
Midyim berries are the blueberries of bush tucker.
- White, purple-speckled berries
- Fruit from summer to autumn
- Slight ginger flavour
6''/14cm pot size | Rhaphiolepis delacouri x indica 'Apple Blossom' Indian Hawthorn

6" pot | Pittosporum tenuifolium
Pittosporum Sunburst is a hardy, fast growing plant ideal for hedging and screening. It bears foliage that is glossy with rounded lime green leaves with striking yellow markings on them.
Pittosporum Sunburst prefers a position of full sun or partial shade and well drained soil. This plant is wind tolerant. Sunburst is great for hedging and grows well in coastal regions. |
| Content | | Video: Casaurina 'Cousin It', an interesting low maintenance groundcover
Great for rockeries or spilling down embankments and over the side of pots, and will flow over rocks and hillocks creating spectacular effects. A very easy care plant that does well in a wide range of soil types, and from cold temperate to subtropical areas. The dense foliage will deter weed growth, adding to the low maintenance aspect. Can take some salt, so is good for coastal gardens. Tolerant of dry spells once established, frost tolerant. Heavy frost may brown the top foliage, but new growth will shoot away in spring. | Midyim Berries, also known as Midgen berry plants and sand berries, are delicious small white, purple-speckled bush tucker plants. They are similar in both taste and appearance to the blueberry, with a slight ginger flavour.
In early summer small white star-shaped flowers appear on the Midyim Berry plant, gradually turning into the sweet and tasty berries throughout summer and autumn.
Although they are seen growing in sandy soils in the wild, keep the soil moist and well-fed to ensure a good harvest of Midyim berries in the following months.
These little shrubs can double as a Midyim Berry hedge around a garden bed or along a path, though not so much grown as a Midyim Berry tree as they are usually too small to grow so tall.
Midyim Berry Austromyrtus dulcis can be cultivated in different climatic conditions and prefers a warm climate to thrive.
Do you need a low-spreading shrub for your outdoor space? Choose the Midyim berry hedge. The plant can be used for decoration purposes and you can also use it to prepare salads and desserts. | 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. | | |
