Description

Rhododendron indica 'Shirazz' Azalea

Azalea Shirazz features lovely burgundy foliage that provides interest all year, and red wine coloured Spring flowers. A good compact growing, bushy azalea, perfect for a mass planting or border. Azaleas are great for underplaning trees, as they stay low and compact and enjoy 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.

Cuphea hyssopifolia

Rob's Mauve is a compact evergreen shrubby bush with fine heather like foliage and masses of mauve flowers in spring through to autumn. Ideal for low borders or hedges and pots. Frost hardy and drought tolerant once established. Prefers a full sun to part shade position
