One of the loveliest native azaleas when in bloom. Very fragrant. Does need regular water to become established.

I'm trying to transplant them in different places to use as ground covers and weeding off as much grass as I can - especially on the slopes to reduce mowing on the slopes...it is very hard work. I love the chocolate ajugas. Thanks for sharing your pics.

An excellentt screening plant with it's deep dreen, glossy leaves it grows well in a hedge, and in both appearance and growth requirements works well with camelias and azaleas. Big white flowers similar to camelias with showy yellow stamens. Will tolerate some drought and frosts but benefits from deep mulching.

A small- medium weeping gum. the bark is strikingly striated lengthways as the rich red- brown bark peels back in long stripes to reveal the white bark underneath. The younger woody growth is white and particulary so in the cooler months, looks spectacular as it weeps downwards.
