| Description | Agave attenuata
Agave are one of the easiest plants to establish and maintain. They grow in full sun to shade in most soil types. Agave are best grown in reasonably well drained soils and love to be watered regularly, once a week to once a fortnight, but will thrive in periods of dryness. | Cedrela sinensis (syn. Toona sinensis)
Also known as the Chinese Toon Tree, this fabulous feature tree is fast and narrow growing, making it perfect for tight spaces.
• Bright pink new growth in the spring, making it stand out from everything else
• Leaves gradually fade from pink to cream and finally to green
• Grows best in moist, well-drained soil in full sun to part shade | 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.
