| Description | Magnolia grandiflora
Greenback Magnolias are closely related to the Little Gem Magnolia, but features leave with green rather than brown undersides (hence their name). They feature very glossy foliage and large cream flowers.
A fantastically lush specimen tree, Greenback magnolias also make a wonderful screening tree.
100 litre | Rosa banksiae
The Banksia Rose is a tough evergreen climbing rose with soft ruffled yellow flowers which appear in Spring. Like Iceberg Roses, it's prized as a disease resistant and hardy rose. It works well as a groundcover rose or a climber when given a support such as a trellis.
The Banksia rose is an incredibly useful and versatile climber or groundcover as it is low maintenance, thornless and tolerates full sun and part shade.
