Compact and vigorous…. Pippa White is one of my favourite Lavenders for year round performance.
Pippa White with its grey – green aromatic foliage produces masses of White flowers with purple & white spikes in the spring and summer months
Pippa White grows 80cms tall by 60cms wide in a full sun to part shade position, in well drained soil… doesnt like wet feet.
Pippa White is ideal for Cottage gardens, borders, low hedges, pots & containers
Prune after flowering to encourage continuous, compact and fresh growth to avoid woodiness and they dont normally need a lot of fertiliser, but for best results use a slow release all purpose fertiliser, once per year
Prostanthera Ovalifolia Compacta, Dwarf Mint Bush is a mounded Australian Native Shrub with aromatic green foliage, that is offset in the Spring & Summer months with masses of mauve - purple flowers.
Compacta will grow 1 to 2 metres tall to 1.5 metres wide in a full sun to filtered light position in most soil types. Water well in the Summer months and prune after flowering to promote bushy growth, mulch well to retain soil moisture and suppress weeds.
Duranta China Girl is a beautiful plant with bright shiny green leaves on weeping branches that can grow up to 2 metres tall by 1.5metres wide. China Girl loves full sun to partial shade, we planted our Duranta china girl in our garden in a little more shade than suggested and it still grows great.
the best feature of Duranta China Girl is from Spring until Autumn, this spectacular plant has deep violet flowers that are contrasted with a pure white centre that radiates outwards as well as encircling each petal, which are delicately fragrant...... I sense the smell of vanilla, some agree with me, some don't, but either way, the fragrance is soft, sweet and delightful
Duranta China Girl respond well to regular pruning, needs a regular water during the warmer months and prefers a well drained soil for the rest of the year.
China Girl is great as a feature plant on its own either in the garden or in a pot, is great in fragrant or sensory gardens, can be used as a screen for privacy, hedging or borders, can be used as espalier, or used as a topiary standard.
Another forgotten old fashioned favourite, due to reduced garden space in modern homes, but with some clever ways to have one such as topiary standard in a pot, Duranta China Girl is A must have in your garden.
Boronia Purple Jared, like Boronia Heterophylla Pink, is also in my opinion, one of the toughest of the Boronia range ... fragrant foliage and fragrant Purple flowers, and much hardier than its sooky relatives brown boronia, yellow boronia and some of the white varieties
Boronia Purple Jared is an upright Australian Native, bushy evergreen shrub with narrow dark green fragrant foliage, with a mass of fragrant Dark Purple flowers in the late winter to spring months.
Purple Jared Boronia, will grow up to 1.5 metres tall, by 1 metre wide ( can grow larger if really happy), loves cooler climates, tolerates light frosts, is best planted in moist, but well drained soils in a dappled shaded garden.
Pink Boronia is ideal for shady gardens, screening/hedges, shrubberies and also in pots and containers. It can also be used for cut flowers.
Lightly prune after flowering to promote and maintain new bushy compact growth and fertilise once per year with a good quality native fertiliser,
