HMMMM DELIGHTFUL DAPHNE
Thank goodness for the warmth of the colour pink and sweet fragrance in the garden on a cold Winter's day.

CAMELLIA SASANQUA 'HIRYU'

 Hiryu has gorgeous deep rose pink flowers which stand out brilliantly against its foliage and make a beautiful display from Autumn well into Winter. It is a hardy vigorous tall shrub with attractive deep green foliage. One of the tallest Camellias so suitable for screening the neighbours. It can achieve height in excess of 4 meters in ideal conditions but can be pruned to form a neat large hedge.

If planting Hiryu as a hedge or screen we recommend planting with a spacing of between 1.2m to 1.8m apart. (Use the narrower spacing where a dense bushy hedge is required quickly and wider spacing’s for a superior long term effect). Prune in early spring for shape as required (later pruning will reduce Autumn flowering).

Hiryu is suitable for planting in both, full sun or lightly shaded positions.
4m x 3m if unpruned. 

DAPHNE 'PERFUME PRINCESS'
Daphne ‘Perfume Princess’ is a delightful evergreen shrub, with larger, non-yellowing foliage compared to other Daphne. Flowers can be four times larger than Daphne odora species and have a delicious perfume with sweet citrus undertones. Lilac buds fade to white and open all down the stem intensifying the fragrance.
Grows in sun or shade with low water requirements. Once established requires only occasional deep watering during periods of extended heat. Plant in a well-drained position which is critical for success with any Daphne. For optimum results, lightly trim and feed with a slow release fertiliser in summer to maintain shape and vigour. Tolerant of both acid and alkaline soil types
HELLEBORUS 'DOUBLE PINK'
With gorgeous ruffled full flowers this Hellebore is perfect floating in a water bowl as a cut flower. Commonly known as winter roses, they are tough evergreen perennials that are well suited to south eastern Australia's climate. Hellebores have handsome glossy divided foliage, are drought tolerant once established and are ideal mass planted under trees.

WINTER ELEGANCE series Hellebores have been developed from one of Australia's finest specialist collections. The secret to the WINTER ELEGANCE series is a long-term breeding program comprising rigorous selection of the best stock plants and painstaking hand pollination. The result is a collection of quality strains of tough garden worthy Hellebores with superior flower colour and form.

Position: Semi-shade to full shade. Ideal under and around deciduous trees and shrubs. Best in well-drained fertile garden soil that has had Pure Magic Compost added. 

Height and spread: 45cm x 45cm

Vietnamese Mint

Vietnamese mint or Vietnamese coriander is a creeping, herbaceous perennial. The native habitat of Vietnamese mint is South East Asia, and Vietnam in particular where it grows naturally.

You can harvest fresh leaves and stems as you need them for cooking or to use as health supplements. The plant recovers well and you will have a constant supply, so there is no need to dry and store the leaves. The leaves are widely used in cooking and also have some traditional medicinal uses.

Vietnamese mint has a creeping habit and prefers dappled shade to protect from the hot sun and moist conditions, but if kept well-watered it can do well in full sun. As with all herbs, a fertile and well drained location will give the best results.  It will do well in most Australian climates, but make sure they have enough water in summer and be prepared for frost tenderness in affected areas.

Vietnamese mint is admired for its peppery or hot minty taste, which is quite pleasant. Some people prefer to use it sparingly while others use larger servings in their salads. The taste has been also been likened to coriander and its culinary uses are similar. It is very popular in Vietnamese and South East Asian cuisine, like rice, meat, poultry and curry dishes where it can be added during cooking. However, Vietnamese mint is often used in rice paper rolls and in salads to great effect. To make your own, simply use rice paper, rice noodle, add your choice of vegetables and herbs (Vietnamese mint, basil and chives are nice) perhaps add some chicken or prawns and serve!

MAKE THE MOST OF THE RAIN WITH RAPID SOAK
