Description

Luma apiculata

Myrtus Luma is the medium to tall hedge with real traditional style. A lot of people believe the only fast growing larger hedge with fine foliage is the Pittosporum. It is an extraordinarily versatile plant suitable for hedging, screening, topiary, or as a specimen tree, but its small, aromatic leaves respond so well to pruning that it is commonly used as a hedge. Myrtus luma also makes a wonderful specimen tree if left unpruned. With age it forms an outstanding trunk with cinnamon brown branches. Its bark peels to reveal streaks of pink and beige. What a plant! It really should be seen more in Australian gardens.

Acacia covenyi 'Blue Bush Wattle'

A rarer form of Acacia, the 'Blue Bush Wattle' has long, blue-grey foliage unlike any other. The foliage alone is one of the main reasons this wattle is chosen for hedging or screening, making a gorgeous steel blue wall of hardy foliage. And in the spring it's flush with the iconic yellow pom-pom wattle flowers, contrasting vibrantly against the foliage.

To get the best flowering results, plant in full sun, but Blue Bush Wattle can grow well in part shade. They do not like soggy soils, so be sure to plant in a well drained position.
