GARDENIAS

Rhaphiolepis (also known as Indian Hawthorn) is a great plant for function and colour. These woody shrubs are widely used as low-growing border plants. They are tough, drought-tolerant, salt-tolerant and generally low-maintenance but correct varietal selection is very important. Many Hawthorns suffer badly from leaf-spot and subsequent leaf-drop, particularly in our humid summers. Others set a lot of seed and can become invasive. There are a lot of varieties available but two

which have repeatedly shown to be resistant to leaf-spotting and do not set masses of seed include Rhaphiolepis Oriental Pearl and Rhaphiolepis Oriental Pink. Both of these Australian-bred varieties are naturally rounded in shape without the need for pruning. Although flowering mostly during spring, these plants look sensational at all times of the year due to their thick, glossy foliage and naturally tidy habit. They are also perfect for tubs or pots.

Autumn is a perfect time to plant before it starts getting too hot, giving plants time to settle in before the real heat of summer arrives. Ideally, you want plants in your garden that not only look good through the cooler months but also thrive through Australia’s hot summers.

Paradise Plants have been breeding exciting new plants for Australian gardens for more than forty years. All ‘Paradise’ branded plants are rigorously selected to ensure trouble-free gardening and are tested in REAL GARDENS, so you can feel confident that when you choose ‘Paradise’ you will be rewarded with tough, reliable, beautiful plants.

Camellias are a tough & hardy breed of plants. Camellia sasanqua are gaining popularity worldwide for their vigour, versatility and ease of growth. Paradise Plants is a world leader in the breeding & development of Camellia Sasanqua and plants are being successfully grown throughout Australia.Autumn is the time when Camellia sasanqua are starting to flower. These versatile Camellias are perfect in full sun or shade, tolerant of heat and cold, and available in a wide range of colours from pure white through

to deep pinks & reds, including beautiful bi-colours. They make lovely container plants which can be kept in pots on your verandah or balcony for many years. Add to this their many shapes and sizes and you will find that there is a Camellia sasanqua that’s perfect for your needs.So, depending on your style, put in a big block of your favourite coloured sasanquas or mix it up with several different colours for a kaleidoscope of autumn cheer!
