Description

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.

Cupressocyparis leylandii

Leighton Green Conifer is the fastest hedge for total visual, noise, dust & dirt protection. • Grow a 3-meter hedge in only 2 years • Classy Rich Green Foliage • Easy To Maintain 10"/25cm pot size.

Cedrus brevifolia var horizontalis 

Cyprian Cedar is a very rare conifer in cultivation. It is slow growing, growing to approximately 2m in height over the first 10 years. It has dark green, very short needles. The branches grow horizontally and the tree develops a rounded crown with age. It may need staking in the early years to develop the upright habit. Having the short needles makes it a favourite with bonsai enthusiasts. 8"/20cm pot
