'Star of Toscana' is an elegant, vigorous climber of glossy, lanceolate leaves with an abundance of highly frangrant soft yellow star shaped flowers, that bloom continuously throughout summer and autumn. Perfect for coving fences, walls and pergolas or even used as a ground cover, low hedge or container plant. When using Star of Toscana as a climber you will need to provide strong support. Plant in a full sun to part shade area, with well drained soil. It will tolerate most soil types, is low maintenance and is relatively drought tolerant once established. Regular pruning may be required to keep it neat and tidy. Fertilse annually with a complete slow release fertiliser.

Soft Tree Fern is a very tough tree fern that is probably the best choice if you are looking for a reliable fern for a shady position in the garden. The beautiful fronds are produced throughout the warmer months of the year.
Once Soft Tree Fern gets fully established, it is also surprisingly capable of withstanding dry spells. The only maintenance required is the removal of dead and dying fronds once or twice a year and feeding with well rotted manure at the same time.
Grows approximately H:1.5 - 15 Meters W:1 - 2 Meters
