Banksia marginata ‘Coastal Spread’  – A dense low growing  and easy care banksia with a naturally mounding and compact shape. It has bright yellow flower cones attractively held on the outside of the bush. This plant is a real magnet for birds and Pygmy possums and a fantastic garden feature plant. Flowers from late summer to early winter. Grows from 1-2m high and 2-3m wide. it is a hardy bush suited to sunny and partly shaded sites, growing in well drained to dry sites including coastal and inland. It is frost hardy and tolerant of a variety of soils.

Adenanthos serecius – Woolly Bush – The wonderful soft, velvet-like texture and silver coloured foliage are the outstanding features of this species, and the nectar rich flowers in spring and summer that attract birds to feed. This plant is best suited to areas of southern Australia that have a Mediterranean climate (ie dry summers) rather than the more humid climates of places like Sydney and Brisbane. It grows into a large shrub and so makes a great feature plant and is sometimes used as a Christmas tree if grown in a large container. It has a compact habit.

Plants are grown in tubes 50mm square, 120mm deep, and are grown on outdoor benches to be sun, wind and frost hardy and ready to plant straight to your garden or bigger pots
