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.

Prunus lusitanica

If you're looking for a really classy, deep green foliage hedge then look no further. Portuguese Laurel adds class and character to the formal or Hampton style garden. • Perfect for dense or pleached hedging and large standard topiary • Long, elegant white flowers bloom in the warmer months Tolerates most soil conditions, full sun to part shade 16"/40cm pot - Standard form - approx 1.8m tall

Cupressus macrocarpa 

Monterey Cypress or Western District Cypress a large evergreen tree conifer which lives long and grows large in perfect conditions. Native to coastal California, it suits coastal conditions and has the unique tendancy to be "sculptured" by the wind over time as it grows. The foliage grows in dense sprays, bright green in color. The leaves are scale-like and produced on rounded shoots. Makes a good windbreak in coastal areas.

Hylotelephium spectabile 'Autumn Joy'

Stunning succulent cottage plant with large, pink flower heads • Flowers throughout summer and autumn • Fleshy green leaves that bronze, dying down in cold climates & returning in the spring • Prefers full sun and will tolerate a range of soil types, excluding soggy soils
