Syzygium australe Up and Away is an attractive, cultivated variety prized for its elegant, upright form and refined foliage. This versatile lilly pilly, native to eastern Australia, features lush green leaves complemented by clusters of white flowers that appear in the warmer months. These are followed by dark pink, edible fruits that add seasonal interest. Its naturally narrow, vertical habit makes Up and Away an excellent choice for creating height in the landscape, whether used as a standalone feature or clipped into a tidy hedge. For optimal performance, apply a balanced fertiliser in spring to encourage fresh growth and overall plant vigour.

Protea Pink Crown is a compact evergreen shrub celebrated for its breathtaking autumn to winter display. It produces soft, pale pink and cream flowers with delicately layered bracts that create a refined, almost ethereal appearance. The blooms look spectacular showcased on the shrub and are equally impressive as long-lasting cut flowers indoors. Ideal as a stand-alone specimen, Pink Crown makes a striking focal point in garden beds, native landscapes, or decorative containers. Its naturally neat growth habit makes it well suited to smaller gardens while still delivering dramatic visual impact. Light pruning after flowering will help maintain shape and encourage a bushier, more compact growth habit, ensuring an even more abundant floral display the following season.

Soil: Well-drained soil. If you don't have well-drained soil, create a mound to facilitate planting
Conditions: Full sun. Drought, heat and coastal tolerant. Provide shelter in colder climates.
Size: Height 1.5-1.8m x width 1.5-1.8m
