Leptospermum The Lavender Queen is a compact, evergreen Australian native prized for its fast growth, hardy nature, and graceful weeping habit. Its arching red-toned branches are clothed in rounded green foliage, creating a soft cascading effect throughout the garden. In spring, the plant becomes covered in masses of delicate lilac-pink flowers that add long-lasting seasonal colour and attract pollinators. Highly versatile in the landscape, The Lavender Queen is ideal for informal hedging, coastal gardens, screening and windbreaks, or as a contrasting feature plant in mixed garden beds. Low maintenance and reliable, this hardy shrub responds well to occasional light pruning, which helps maintain a dense, tidy shape and encourages fresh new growth.

Soil: Moist, well-drained soil.
Conditions: Sunny position. Drought, frost, salt and coastal hardy.
Size: Height 1.5m x width 1m

Adenanthos Silver Streak is an attractive native shrub-like tree used for contrast in the landscape. This Australian native is covered in fine, ferny silver grey/green foliage giving it a 'soft' appearance and it is soft to the touch. The flowers are red and insignificant - though still bird-attracting - and it is the colour and texture of the foliage that is the feature. A useful screen plant as it is a tall and upright form of woolly bush, it can be used in cut flower arrangements, and a potted plant makes a lovely Australian native Christmas tree. Tip pruning gives the bush a great shape although pruning is not necessary. Feed in spring with low phosphorus fertiliser.

Soil: Well-drained soils.
Conditions: Full sun to partial shade. Drought, salt and frost tolerant.
Size: Height 2m x width 1.5m

Its naturally compact habit makes it an excellent choice for feature planting, native gardens, decorative pots or planted in pairs for a striking effect. Low maintenance and drought tolerant once established, Jingle Bells responds well to a light trim after flowering to maintain its neat, rounded shape.
