The Macadamia integrifolia, commonly known as the macadamia nut tree, is a beautiful medium-sized evergreen tree prized for producing the delicious macadamia nut. With its glossy green foliage and decorative, pendulous flower trusses, it is both productive and ornamental, making it a standout feature in Australian gardens. From late winter through spring, the tree bears intensely fragrant cream-white flowers that hang in elegant clusters. These blooms are not only attractive but signal the beginning of the nut development cycle. Macadamia nuts are slow to ripen, taking just over six months from flowering to maturity. Mature nuts naturally fall to the ground when ready and should be collected promptly to ensure freshness and prevent spoilage. The harvest period is long and rewarding, typically running from March through to June. Grafted varieties are strongly recommended for home gardeners and orchard growers alike. Grafted trees provide more consistent nut production, improved nut quality, and often begin bearing earlier than seed-grown trees.

Soil: Prefers moist, fertile soils with good drainage. 
Conditions: It is a hardy and easy-care tree best suited to sub-tropical to warm temperate climates.
Size: Height 5-10m x width 4-6m

Its elegant form makes it an excellent feature tree for gardens, parks, courtyards, and outdoor living areas where seasonal interest and visual softness are desired.

Soil: Well-drained soil. 
Conditions: Prefers full sun. Tolerant to wind and coastal conditions and some frost.

Cotinus Dusky Maiden is a compact and striking Smoke Bush valued for its deep purple foliage and its distinctive, airy flower plumes that create a soft, smoky effect through the warmer months. In spring, new leaves emerge a rich burgundy and hold their colour well into summer. Early in the season, clusters of tiny pale pink to purple flowers rise above the foliage and develop into the large, misty plumes that give the plant its name. As summer moves into autumn, these billowy plumes mature into smoky seed heads, while the foliage shifts to brilliant shades of red and orange before falling. In winter, the plant becomes bare and structural, with its leafless stems adding shape and contrast to the seasonal landscape. Ideal for borders, hedges or as a standalone feature, it brings bold colour and graceful texture to the garden.

Soil: Well-drained soil.
Conditions: Full sun to part shade. Drought, frost, and coastal tolerant. Shelter from searing heat and wind.
