| Description | Pittosporum tenuifolium 'Green Pillar'
Pittosporum Green Pillar is a hardy and fast growing bushy variety of Pittosporum ideal for hedging and screening. It has small brown flowers which have a distinct honey scent and are produced in spring.
Handles a wide range of conditions. Will grow in full sun to part shade. | Prunus var. nucipersica
Deciduous, fruiting tree has lance-shaped, dark green leaves with massed clusters of small, fragrant pink flowers in Spring followed by large edible sweet and juicy yellow fleshed fruit in Summer. This slightly fuzzy reddish/yellow skinned fruit is a cross between a peach and a nectarine. Ideal for full sun in gardens, as a feature, edging or in large pots. It can be eaten fresh or cooked. It is self-pollinating and attracts bees.
| Pyrus calleryana 'Bradford'
The original ornamental pear from which all other ornamental pears were scioned.
• Spring blossoms on bare branches
• Vibrant autumnal colours of red, orange and purple
• Ideal for rural properties or as a shade tree
Bradford Pears are becoming superseded by newer varieties that are far less affected by strong winds and are more structural sound.
