Big Red is a magnificent kangaroo paw that makes a bold architectural statement in the garden. Strappy green leaves grow to around 250mm long, forming a neat clump at the base, while impressive flower spikes can soar up to 2 metres tall, creating dramatic vertical impact. The clusters of vivid tomato-red flowers, each up to 40mm long, are carried high above the foliage and provide a spectacular display from late spring through to mid-summer. The velvety blooms are rich in nectar, making them highly attractive to nectar-feeding birds and a wonderful addition to wildlife-friendly gardens. For best results, plant in a sunny position with well-drained soil. An annual application of a low-phosphorus Australian native fertiliser after flowering will support healthy growth and strong flowering. Remove spent flower spikes and any dead foliage regularly to keep the plant tidy and encourage continued vigour.

Grevillea Knockout is a compact, dwarf native shrub that delivers a long-lasting splash of colour from April through to October. Its clusters of tiny, curled red and yellow flowers sit beautifully against neat, densely packed foliage that emerges apple green before maturing to a deeper green. The fine foliage gives the plant a tidy, rounded appearance, making it perfect for small spaces. Ideal for dry gardens, rockeries and low hedging, Grevillea Knockout is both hardy and low maintenance once established. Prune after flowering to encourage fresh growth and maintain a compact shape. Feed with a slow-release native fertiliser when buds begin to form, ensuring the phosphorus content remains under 3%, as grevilleas can be sensitive to higher phosphorus levels.
Soil: Plant in well-mulched, well-drained soil.
Conditions: Full sun. Frost, coastal and heat tolerant.

Leucospermum Scarlet Ribbon is a compact, rounded, evergreen shrub with large, salmon-pink flower clusters. Orange stamens rise above a cushion of very showy, glossy, red ribbons from which this flower gains its name. The blooms are produced in such abundance that they cover the plant from late spring to mid-summer. Scarlet Ribbon will attract birds and bees to the garden, and its compact shape makes it ideal for low hedges and borders. It is an excellent cut flower.
Soil: Well-drained soil. If you have clay soils, use mounds to plant into to facilitate drainage. Be sure to use a native soil mix when planting. Exotic potting mix or exotic fertiliser will kill them.
Conditions: Full sun. These plants are moderately frost, coast and drought-tolerant.
Size: Height 2m x width 1.5m
Rubus Thornless Blackberry is a gardener’s delight — vigorous, productive, and easy to harvest without the worry of sharp spines. These hardy berry shrubs produce masses of sweet, dark purple to black fruits through mid to late summer, following a charming display of white or pink blossoms in late spring. The glossy, dark green foliage forms a dense, bushy plant that makes an attractive addition to the edible garden or a soft feature along a fence or trellis. For best results, prune during winter or early spring to remove old, weak, or damaged canes and maintain a tidy, open shape. Thornless Blackberries thrive with strong support and regular care, rewarding you with an abundant harvest year after year.
Soil: Well-drained fertile soil. If your soil is heavy or prone to poor drainage, consider planting in raised beds or mounds to ensure good water flow around the roots
