| Description | Grevillea lanigera
Showing masses of hot pink and cream spider like winter flowers and soft, green foliage provides interest when the plant is not in flower. It needs a well drained soil and plenty of sun to flower to its full potential. It tolerates moderate frosts and can be trimmed back behind the spent flowers once the danger of frost has finished for the year. It is an excellent choice for a rockery, a medium sized pot or as a mounding groundcover plant. Good for coastal positions. | Portulacaria afra, Money Tree
Jade Succulent is an extremely common plant in Australian gardens and has been for some time. Not only is it easy to grow, you'll find it's hardy in most conditions, and really only struggles when over-watered. Preferring a loose draining soil, the Jade Succulent is one of the more resilient succulents when it comes to things like clayey soil. A very attractive addition to any garden! | Bambusa vulgaris 'Wamin'
Common names: Giant buddha's belly bamboo, Greater Buddha's Belly or Ornamental bulging stem Bamboo.
Produces thick, bulging culms, with weeping branches and evergreen luscious leaves to give you a tropical feel all year round! Can be used as a feature, in pots or ground, screening and hedging. If using as hedging plant at least 1m apart. It is non-invasive bamboo that can be trimmed to any height, if left it may reach between 6-8m. Ensure you use well drained soil, protect from frosts, and plant in full sun to part shade. | Stachys byzantina (syn. lanata)

English Oaks are famous for being solid and strong. The trunk and secondary branches are very solid and are covered in thick blackish-grey bark which makes it quite a sight.
The autumn foliage is a rich, dark brown. As the foliage is smaller than other deciduous trees, fallen leaves are not particularly difficult to eliminate and will not clog drains.
