| Description | Calathea makoyana
Peacock produces leaves which are show stoppers! They have interesting toothed or wavy margins combined with contrasting light and dark markings. This indoor plant can be a little tricky to grow but it is well worth it. Performs best in warm climates. This plant needs to be not overly wet or dry, just constantly moist.
Please call to confirm availability (03) 9359 3331 or place your order before attending the nursery to avoid disappointment. | Boronia megastigma
Brown Boronia is a small shrub that reaches heights of around a meter, and while it can be short lived, it is worth growing for the beautifully perfumed flowers in Spring. The best garden growing conditions are in dappled shade, in moist but well drained soils, and it loves a cool root run, which can be ensured with a good layer of mulch.
6" pot size. | Lonicera nitida
Fast growing, fine leaf box hedging and topiary plant with a defined edge.
• Get your box hedge or topiary twice as fast!
• Responds very well to pruning, becoming beautifully dense
• Tolerates very poor soils and hot conditions | Thymus serpyllum
Pink Creeping Thyme blooms in mid-spring, creating a carpet of salmon-pink flowers. It is one of the first Thyme to bloom in spring and is an excellent choice for planting between flagstones and other stone pavers in patios, courtyards, and pathways. Can tolerate occasional foot traffic. These easy-to-grow plants are bird and butterfly-attracting. Thrives in a position of full sunlight. | Chaenomeles speciosa nivalis alba
White flowering Quince (Japanese Quince).
A fast growing, large deciduous shrub or small tree originating from Asia producing white flowers when it's leaves fall and small sour fruits great for jams. Mature growth: 2.5m tall x 3m wide. |
| Content | | | BoxOz Lonicera has been specially developed by Chris, and is our exclusive hedging plant. It has a deeper green foliage, a denser finish and more clearly defined shape than the traditional English Box.
BoxOz Lonicera is the best plant with which to create your perfect hedge or border as it grows quickly and once your hedge has developed its easy to maintain with only a few trimmings a year. New shoots are soft and easy to cut and trimming is an effortless relaxing experience.
Some traditional hedging plants grow only an inch or two a year. BoxOz Lonicera will produce a calf high border in under twelve months, a knee high hedge in around 18 months, and a waist high hedge in 30 months. Almost any soil is suitable, as long as it is not too swampy. Fertilise your BoxOz Lonicera occasionally with a complete fertiliser, and water as required. | | |
