Kangaroo Paw 'Celebrations' Range ARE BACK!

 Well suited to tub and pot displays, these are the perfect gift idea with prolific flowering all year round.

Prefers a protected, bright and sunny position.
Remove old flower stems and leaves as close to base as possible. Water only when the top of the potting mix has dried out. Watering requirements will increase when plants are in full flower.

Nephrolepsis ‘Macho Fern'


One of the most popular ferns worldwide. This distinctive Boston Fern bears long, graceful, arching fronds of rich green leaflets.

Best displayed in hanging baskets and large, decorative containers. Suitable for ferneries or a cool shady spot in the garden.

Grow in a shady to partly shaded position in moist, humus-rich soil. Indoors choose a position with filtered light. Keep soil moist at all time. Liquid fertilise during the growing season. Remove dead or spent leaves to keep plant tidy.

 
KALANCHOE 'Quicksilver'

Kalanchoe Quicksilver is a unique and eye-catching variety of Kalanchoe. It is known for its striking silvery-blue leaves, which set it apart from other Kalanchoe species. The leaves have a velvety texture, adding to the plant's overall appeal.
Flowers are pink and plentiful.

As with most Kalanchoe plants, Quicksilver is relatively low-maintenance and can thrive in well-draining soil and bright, indirect light. It is a popular choice for indoor plant enthusiasts, but it can also be grown outdoors in mild climates as a charming addition to rock gardens or succulent displays.

COOL STUFF FOR DAD!

Don't be a dill, get some dill!
 

Dill is a a very attractive, feathery herb grown both for its leaves and its seeds. It is also a good food source for beneficial insects. The leaves are best eaten before the plant runs to seed. The leaves have a delicate tangy flavour and a wonderful aroma which goes really well with fish, eggs, and poultry. Best used fresh and added towards the end of any cooking process. The aroma and attractive feathery texture makes it one of the best garnishes in the kitchen. It is particularly good in salad dressings and in oils and butters, or through cream cheese.

Dill is frost tender, so plant after the last spring frosts. When planting, keep in mind they are a tallish herb which blow over easily, so in the middle or back of the herb/vegie garden is best. Plant in a position which will get at least half a day’s sun. A mildly acidic to neutral soil is best.

Each plant grows between 40-70cm tall from a single tap root, the flower heads shoot up another 20cm or so. They have hollow stems and tend to blow over easily in the wind, so either grow in a nice self-supporting clump or stake. Keep moist (mulching is good). Will grow until it is cut down by frost.

You can start picking leaves once there are several fronds (commonly within 6-8 weeks of planting). Pick the leaves until flower heads develop, and it is best used within a day of picking.
