| Description | Aloe barbadensis
Aloe Vera is a very useful succulent to have in the garden, and no Aussie home should be without one. Use the juice from the leaves straight on skin to moisturize, heal sunburn and other skin irritations and problems naturally. | 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. | Acer Platanoides "Columnare Norway Maple"
Columnare Maple is a versatile, narrow growing tree with a sturdy, even branch structure. Ideal for use in large gardens, avenues and street planting. It has a slow to moderate growth rate reaching a height of 10 meters.
The foliage this Norway Maple bears is a rich dark green which turns to a yellow Autumn colour. It is moderately resistant to drought and requires little assistance once established. Likes minimum sunlight.
16" pot size.
