EUCALYPTUS 'PURPLE PATCH'
A small to medium size semi-weeping clear-trunked tree 4-6m tall by 2-3m. Massed purple flowers in winter and spring. Ideal for home gardens, NOTE: As this plant is grown by seed, genetic variability can produce variations in leaf shape and size, flower colour, and plant size.

CORREA 'DUSKY BELLS'

Sage - Fruit Salad (Salvia dorisiana)

An upright shrub with attractive rose pink flowers with a tropical fruit flavour. 

The delicate flavour of this herb means it needs to be added late in the cooking or used as an edible garnish. As a tea it should be brewed for 3- 4 minutes. Like moist sage based herbal teas this will aid in relaxation and give a lift in the afternoon. 

Unlike many other salvias this plant likes regular moisture, especially during the summer months and will grow in low light to full sun. The flowers occur from mid spring to late autumn and the bush should be given a hard prune after flowering.
