| Description | Banksia integrifolia
Banksia integrifolia or ‘Coastal Banksia’ is a hardy native found down the Eastern coastline of Australia. Often seen in windswept and sculptural shapes along beach fronts, when placed in a less hostile environment, they can become quite beautiful, bushy specimen plants. They grow anywhere between 4m - 10m and 1m - 5m wide, depending on their environment. During autumn and winter their yellow flowers form into large cones, rich with nectar. These stunning flowers attract lots of bird life, particularly cockatoos and honey-eaters. Coastal Banksia is a slow grower and can handle a wide range of soil types.

Robinia Casque Rouge is a spectacular variety, widely grown for its delicate but abundant colourful blooms. With breathtakingly beautiful crimson/purple large scented flowers it is quite a stunner.
Casque Rouge thrives on any soil, and tolerates urban pollution and prefers non-windy locations.

The Akila Canyon Mixed African Daisy has a beautiful array of assorted colours throughout Spring. This is a great choice for mass planting African Daisies for a garden bed or border, where you want a nice mix of colour but don’t want to fiddle around picking an assortment of varieties.
African Daisies in general are very hardy landscaping plants with a low growing, spreading habit. They will grow to a width of around 35-50cm and a height of only roughly 30cm.
Keep in mind that, as this is an assorted mix of purples and white flowering colours, when buying single plants it’s not possible to predict which colour you will get. Best to buy at least 6 and enjoy the colour selection nature provides. |
