| Description | Anigozanthos flavidus 'Bush Blitz™' Kangaroo Paw
A medium sized kangaroo paw with prolific flowering on branched stems. A good performer, great in a container or in the garden and for cut flowers. Flowering season is a little later than other medium sized paws, from late spring to summer, orange blooms with hints of burgundy. It needs good feeding in late winter and again as it buds up to maintain good health, as that many flowers uses a lot of the plant’s resources.
6'' pot | 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.
