'Jungle Warrior' is a new variety of the very tough and low-maintenance Zanzibar Gem. The new growth is a glossy, light green colour that matures to a deep black. These super hardy indoor plants require very little watering. Allow the soil to dry out completely between watering, water about once a month to every few weeks in the warmer months and even less so in winter. Position in a bright room away from direct sunlight for best results, although the Zanzibar Gem can also tolerate lower light conditions.
Dainty flower texture but the plants are as tough as boots!
‘Albury White’ has masses of pure white flowers that cover the compact tree which grows 5m x 3m . With dark green leaves emerging in spring that change to warm yellow, orange and red tones in autumn before dropping they are a delight year round. Crepe Myrtles are grown for their elegant clusters of blooms that resemble crinkled crepe paper which are on display in summer, and their attractive mottled trunk.
Crepe Myrtles love heat and will tolerate a wide range of soils ranging from heavy to sandy. They benefit from a slow-release fertiliser application in spring and pruning to maintain shape. Pruning in winter encourages new flowering wood for next summer.
SALVIA 'SO COOL VIOLET' So Cool Violet has a striking flower colour of deep purple with high volume of blooms produced in spring, summer and autumn. Very compact and dense growth make it atop choice for the mid level of the garden. Low maintenance, dry tolerant and easy to grow. Grows well in most soil types which are well draining. Prune after main flowering to encourage faster re-bloom and to maintain a neat habit. Apply a slow release fertiliser in spring to improve overall vigour.
Height: 70cm Spread: 1m
'Purple Moon' is a specially selected NEW low mounding, ground covering variety which carries larger flowers than normally found in this species. In addition it has a more vigorous growth habit forming a neat and dense mat ideal for quick results in barren garden areas and also perfect for hanging baskets. The violet-blue flowers open by unfurling 'pleats' to form the strongly flared tube. They first begin appearing from late spring and will continue right through to autumn.
