Description

Metrosideros collina 

Little Dugald is a new variety and a close relation of the Meterosiderous Fiji Fire and Thomasi (New Zealand Christmas Bush) Its better than these as it flowers and flowers and did I say it flowers !!! Frequent flushes of bright red bottle brush like flowers. The little birds love them. It is a tougher plant and for all the right reasons is becoming more popular than it’s Meterosiderous relations, it is good for smaller to medium hedging applications
Corymbia citriodora The Lemon Scented Gum is a smooth white and straight trunked eucalyptus with beautiful scented foliage. A truly classic Aussie tree, the Lemon Scented Gum is koala food as well as good timber. One of the most popular Australian trees grown in Melbourne, so get yours today! Grows up to 25 metres tall, and good for wind breaks and shade. These big trees have strong root systems, so they should be planted slightly away from buildings and fences.

Felicia amelloides 

Blue Marguerite is eye catching wherever it is planted, with its striking sky-blue and sunny yellow flowerheads, which stand well above the leaves. Apart from its beauty, this plant has many advantages. It is hardy, fast growing, long-flowering and long-lived, more or less frost and wind-resistant, needing only moderate water and little care. As blue is a difficult colour to get into a garden, this is definitely a plant that will draw attention. 3"/7cm pot size

Metrosideros collina 'Little Dugald'

Little Dugald is a great plant for a low to medium sized hedge, growing between 1-2m high x 1m wide. It is an extremely versatile shrub that can withstand a light frost, wind and salt tolerant (making it ideal for exposed coastal situations), can be grown in full sun or part shade and is drought tolerant once established. It produces masses of bright red flowers toward the end of Spring right through to the end of Summer which provide plenty of nectar for the local native birds. Prune lightly after flowering to keep maintain it’s shape and compact growth. An application of slow release fertiliser at the start of Spring will encourage new growth and guarantee flowers at the end of Spring.
