| Description | Feijoa sellowiana 'Pineapple guava'
Feijoas are a fairly small evergreen tree with short oval shaped leaves, soft green on top and silvery underneath. Additional to the fruit they yield, they make great specimen trees or can be planted close together for screening and hedging.
Following bright red and white flowers, the Feijoa or Pineapple Guava will produce aromatic fruits around the size of an egg that remain green when ripe. They have perfumed pale cream flesh and their taste is a blend of pineapple and strawberry. | Magnolia doltsopa x laevifolia (SYN. Michelia)
Superbly handsome evergreen feature tree. Masses of creamy white flowers with heavy perfume in Winter to early Spring. A vigorous growing Magnolia that has multiple flower buds at every leaf along the stem.
Grows well in any well drained soil, low water use once established with frost tolerance.
Height: 4mts
Width: 3mts | Pyrus calleryana 'Winter Glow'
The only evergreen ornamental pear currently on the market, making it a highly sought after specimen tree.
• Spring blossoms on semi bare branches
• Ideal for screening or as a shade tree
• Green glossy leaves with a silvered backing
Everscreen Pears will only retain leaves in warmer climates. Cool climate areas such as rural Victoria are likely to see leaf drop in the winter but usually for only a period of up to 5 weeks. In cool climates it the Everscreen will get an autumnal colouring prior to leaf drop.
