African daisy have only been in trade since the early '90s, making it a fairly recent addition to the horticultural world. With their daisylike blossoms in a myriad of colors, osteospermums were a quick hit. Plant these cheery blooms with other cool-season plants for a pleasing pop of colour. The first of the season to bloom and the last out of bloom. It's mounding habit is great for garden beds, baskets or mixed containers. Responds well to regular watering. Loves full sun!

6" pot size. | Ulmus parvifolia
The bark of the Chinese Elm is a real stand out feature, as the tree sheds it in patches, creating the effect of a tapestry of varying browns and greys. Foliage is lush, shiny and green, and the tree is semi deciduous, turning golden in autumn, and keeping its leaves in warmer areas. It has also been noted by many Aussie gardeners in recent years that native birds enjoy the fruit of the Chinese Elm. | |
