Description

Ficus microcarpa var. nitida

Common names: Chinese Banyan, Malayan Banyan or Indian Laurel Fig. 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. See our Ficus Hedging & Screening Factsheet here for more about the different Ficus varieties!

Elberta peach trees give you large, sweet peaches that are perfect for canning, snacking and baking. The fruit are beautiful as well as delicious, ripening to a deep, golden yellow with a red blush. Caring for Elberta peaches isn't hard, the trees are self-fertile, which means that they do not require a second tree for pollination. However, they may produce better if you plant a second tree. The most important thing you need to do to care for Elberta peaches is irrigation. These trees are not drought tolerant and will require regular watering. 7"/18cm pot (this is a dwarf variety reaching a maturity of around 2x2m only)
