| Description | Magnolia grandiflora 'Coolwyn Gloss'
Magnolia 'Coolwyn Gloss' PBR is a lovely and very large Magnolia. The gorgeously lime green, glossy leaves have one of the richest, rusty velvet brown undersides a Magnolia can produce. And some of the largest flowers, with diameters reaching 30cm wide and cup shaped.
'Coolwyn Gloss' PBR are perfect for larger properties needing a big feature tree, shade tree or large flowering screen. They tolerate a wide range of soil types, are relatively disease and pest resistant and, due to their neat habit, are quite low maintenance!

For care instructions, features and more, check out Additional Information below | Ficus microcarpa hillii 'Koh'
A small leaved ficus variety, Koh or California Ficus is ideal for shaping with an upright narrow habit. It has a non-aggressive root system, giving it good longevity in a pot and making it the preferred ficus option for planting near water pipes and pools. An excellent tolerance to coastal conditions, drought and full sun positions. It can be kept as a small hedge, approximately 1 to 3 metres, without competing any close plantings.
