Description

Prostanthera hybrid

Poorinda Ballerina Mint Bush is a dense native shrub, reaching heights of approximately 1.5 m in height with fragrant, oval foliage and masses of showy creamy white flowers in spring. Frost tolerant and drought resistant. 6"/14cm pot size.

Banksia integrifolia

Banksia integrifolia or ‘Coastal Banksia’ is a hardy native found down the Eastern coastline of Australia. Often seen in windswept and sculptural shapes along beach fronts, when placed in a less hostile environment, they can become quite beautiful, bushy specimen plants. They grow anywhere between 4m - 10m and 1m - 5m wide, depending on their environment. During autumn and winter their yellow flowers form into large cones, rich with nectar. These stunning flowers attract lots of bird life, particularly cockatoos and honey-eaters. Coastal Banksia is a slow grower and can handle a wide range of soil types. 10" pot size.
