Natives

Myoporum Creeping Boobialla is a tough, fast-growing Australian native groundcover that forms a dense mat of fine green foliage, making it ideal for suppressing weeds and covering large areas. Small white flowers appear over an extended period, from spring to autumn or winter to summer depending on the climate, adding delicate seasonal colour. Perfect for embankments, slopes, rockeries, and spilling over retaining walls, this low-maintenance variety responds well to an annual prune and a yearly application of native fertiliser to encourage fresh growth and prolific flowering.

Soil: Plant in free-draining soil rich in organic matter.
Conditions: Prefers a full sun position. Coastal, frost and drought hardy.
Size: Height 0.15-0.30m x width 3m

Soil: Prefers free-draining sandy soil - neutral to alkaline.

A superb, hardy, evergreen Australian native shrub, the Gin Gin Gem is a low, dense grevillea with vibrant lime foliage and small spider-type red and cream flowers that attract honey bees and small nectar-feeding birds. It makes an ideal groundcover for embankments and rockeries and brings bright splashes of colour to the garden from late autumn through winter and spring. Prune lightly after flowering for an even more dense habit, and feed in spring.

Soil: Well-drained soil.
Conditions: Full sun or part shade. Drought, light frost and coastal tolerant
Size: Height 0.25m x width 2-3m

Grevillea Hills Jubilee is a small, attractive shrub with fine green foliage and abundant spider-like flowers in beautiful pink and white. Hills Jubilee is a lovely grevillea to add to your garden as it attracts nectar-feeding birds and bees. Ideal for low, neat hedging in narrow areas or attractive as massed plantings in broader landscapes. Pruning after flowering will promote further flowering, dense habit and control growth. Each 3-4 years, a hard prune will result in a fresh flush of flowers and foliage.

Soil: Well-drained clay loams or sandy soil with a neutral to acid pH.
Conditions: Full sun. Drought and frost tolerant.
Size: Height 1-1.5m x width 1-1.5m

The Blueberry Ash is an Australian native found naturally along the Eastern coast of Australia. It has spectacular foliage beginning reddish-pink when young, turning a bright, vivid green when mature and returning to a deep red upon aging. The Blueberry Ash produces fragrant white to pink feathery flowers with fringed edges that hang like tiny lampshades during spring and summer. The ornamental display continues with the appearance of dark blue berries from which the native tree gets its name. This hardy tree is ideal as a specimen tree, informal hedge and, with pruning, can be kept as a large shrub.

Soil: Suits most soil types but must be moist and well-drained.
Conditions: Suits full sun to heavy shade. It is adaptable to many climate zones provided water is available. Moderate frost tolerance.
Size: Height 10-15m x width 3-6m
