| 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. | Passiflora edulis
Passionfruit is a tropical to subtropical vine that bears juicy, aromatic, and sweet to acidic fruit. The vine prefers a frost-free climate. It is a strong, vigorous, evergreen climber. A great spot for a passionfruit vine is out in the open, has full sun and no trees or competitive roots that are next to it. This plant is a fantastic addition to the garden and will provide lots of tasty fruit!
