Passiflora Sapphire
An easy to grow and free flowering Passiflora make P. ‘Sapphire’ an excellent choice for anyone wishing to venture into the world of Passion Flowers. A beautiful Passiflora with purple and white filaments with a soft scent. Hardy to -6C
Banksia menziesii
Banksia menziesii can take the form either of a medium sized gnarled tree or a smaller but more spreading shrub.It has serrated grey to green foliage but it is largely grown for its spectacular autumn inflorescences which are two tone of pink and golden yellow.
Aloysia citriodora
We think this is a most agreeable little plant. The whole plant smells of lemons. It has dainty sprays of tiny white/lilac flowers in summer. It is a rather tender shrub & does best against a warm sheltered wall or in a conservatory. Happy in poor sandy soil. Can be used to make Lemon Verbena Tea.

This most unusually coloured Cordyline features stripes of magenta and hot pink framed by a white margin. A strong, clump forming cordyline with an upright habit. During winter it can stand frost to -2C but needs protection from lower temps.
Pinus Radiata
The Monterey Pine - Pinus radiata is a fast growing, large tree, that makes an impressive specimen tree. Known for its habit of retaining large clusters of cones on its branches for several years, the Monterey pine is conical when young, while in old age the top of the tree billows out in a cloud shape.
