| Description | Philodendron hastatum
A very rare and unusual philodendron with silver, almost metallic-looking foliage. Has a strong climbing habit, so needs a post, log, trellis, or tree to grow on. Set the Philodendron in a location with bright, indirect sunlight. Find a position near a window where the sun’s rays never actually touch the foliage. While it’s normal for older leaves to yellow, if this happens to several leaves at the same time, the plant may be getting too much light. On the other hand, if the stems are long and leggy with several inches between leaves, the plant probably isn’t getting enough light
4''/10cm pot | Pyrus calleryana 'Winter Glow'
The only evergreen ornamental pear currently on the market, making it a highly sought after specimen tree.
• Spring blossoms on semi bare branches
• Ideal for screening or as a shade tree
• Green glossy leaves with a silvered backing
Everscreen Pears will only retain leaves in warmer climates. Cool climate areas such as rural Victoria are likely to see leaf drop in the winter but usually for only a period of up to 5 weeks. In cool climates it the Everscreen will get an autumnal colouring prior to leaf drop.
