| Description | Rosa hybrid tea
Blue Moon produces large silvery blue flowers on long stems that are highly fragrant! The lavender coloured blooms are perfect for mass planting, cut flowers, rose & cottage gardens! Blue Moon is hardy, vigorous and repeat flowering. Available in more variations. | Ficus microcarpa hillii 'Emerald'
Ficus 'Emerald' has a glossier and deeper, emerald green foliage compared with that of the 'Flash' and 'Hill's Weeping' ficus. This rich green foliage matches well with Buxus English Box, particularly in a formal setting.
'Emerald' ficus are quite tolerant of poor soil conditions and hot or windy weather conditions, growing well in both full sun to part shade positions. It does not, however, like the touch of frost.
See our Ficus Hedging & Screening Factsheet here for more about the different Ficus varieties!
