ARCHITECTURALARCHITECTURAL

AGAPANTHUS AFRICANUS ALBUS A clump-forming, evergreen perennial with strap-like leaves and umbels of trumpet-shaped, white flowers tinged pink in late summer.

AGAPANTHUS CASCADE AQUAMA-RINE One of the earliest to flower. Short attractive foliage produc-ing large orange-sized heads of dark aquamarine blue flow-

ers. Good in pots and in front

of borders.

AGAPANTHUS INAPERTUS CASCADE CRYSTAL DROP Amazing huge heads of pendu-lous light blue flowers reaching about 150cm, and make a very suitable plant for the border for mass displays or smaller plantings.

AGAPANTHUS HYBRID EVERBLUE Evergreen in warm climates Though the heads are not as large as some of the other hybrids, the number of flower heads per plant can be spec-tacular. We have counted 40 plus on established plants. What makes this even better is the bloom time is extended producing flowers from spring through to late summer.

AGAPANTHUS INAPERTUS CASCADE DIAMOND A rare white form producing pendulous white flowers reaching about 140cm, and makes a very suitable plant for the border for mass displays or smaller plantings.

AGAPANTHUS BLACK PANTHA Bright green, strap-like basal leaves and erect, black stems bearing large umbels of tubular, dark blue black flowers in summer that are darker when they open. Clump forming.

BULBINE FRUTESCENS YELLOW Bulbine frutescens is a species of flowering plant in the genus Bulbine, native to southern Africa. Bulbine comes from the Greek word bolbine, a general word for a bulbous plant, but particularly Ornithogalum.

BULBINE NATALENSIS A stemless evergreen plant grow-ing to about 1 foot tall holding soft broad 8 inch long triangular bright green leaves with striations and broad channels. The lightly fra-grant starry yellow flowers rise 1-2 feet on in late winter and early summer with the stamen filaments having the fine yellow hairs.

CALLA LILY TREASURE Calla lily treasure boasts a striking warm orange glow with a subtle hint of a red blush towards the outer edges of the blooms. Won-derfully offset by lush green and white-specked foliage.

CORDYLINE AUSTRALIS C. australis is a small evergreen tree with several stout branches arising from a single trunk. Leaves long, sword-shaped, in dense clusters at the branch tips. Large panicles of small, fragrant cream flowers.

CALLA LILY WESTERN CAPE (AKA ARUM

LILY) is one of the world's most iconic and widely known plants. Not a lily at all but an aroid, with its brilliant white floral bract surrounding the central pale yellow floral spike bearing tiny flowers. All parts of the plant are poisonous, causing irritation and swelling of the mouth and acute gastric diarrhœa.

CHONDROPETALUM TECTORUM This plant takes its species name from the Latin word tectorum, meaning roofing, which probably refers to its use a thatching material. Chondropetalum is a member of the restio family from the Western Cape region of South Africa. Plants are tender and need a sheltered, well-drained spot in full sun to grow well. In the UK plants are not reliably hardy and should be grown in pots and taken into the shelter of a cool greenhouse. Water well dur-ing the growing season but keep plants on the dry side during the winter months. Remove any old shoots as they turn brown and wither but avoid any other trimming.

ARCHITECTURALARCHITECTURAL/4

CORDYLINE CHERRY SENSATION Known for its cherry pink leaves, which arch gracefully as the plant matures. It adds brilliant colour to mixed patio planters and brightens up the garden scene with all year round colour, particularly in win-ter.

Produces large panicles of small, sweet-scented flowers in late spring to summer. Best in full coastal sun to light shade - some shade protection necessary in hotter inland gardens. It is drought tolerant in coastal gardens but responds well to occasional to regular irrigation. Useful in dry gardens but also offers a tropical look. A great container plant.

CORDYLINE AUSTRALIS KIWI Cordyline Kiwi Dazzler is a striking variety with striped pink and copper hued foliage. Very attractive and a perfect centrepiece for a display.

CORDYLINE AUSTRALIS CORAL Tough and less likely to burn in the sun and discolour in the cold. Trunk decreases and elongates in size with age. Responds well to ground prun-ing.

CORDYLINE AUSTRALIS REDSTAR A good ingredient for a jungle or tropical-themed garden, the cabbage palm is a striking foliage plant with its long, thin, arching, bronze-red leaves. As a smaller cultivar of the species, it does particularly well in pots on a patio, though it can also be used as summer bedding around the likes of a taller, flamboyant clump of cannas. Since it isn't totally hardy, it must be kept in a frost-free place over winter. If being grown outside permanently, it needs to be planted in a sheltered hot spot in soil that drains freely. If outside, the plant will need some protection over winter, so wrap it up in fleece to protect it from frosts.

CORDYLINE AUSTRALIS SOUTHERN SPLENDOUR An evergreen palm-like tree with sword-shaped grey-green striped leaves, with pink margins.

CORDYLINE AUSTRALIS SUNRISE An erect, palm-like tree with arching, lance- to linear-shaped, dark pink leaves with bright pink margins. Under favourable conditions, pani-cles of creamy white flowers bloom in summer followed by white or blue-tinted berries.

It is a perennial, evergreen plant which grows up to 1.5m in large clumps. It grows naturally in full sun or partial shade at forest mar-gins, or in the shelter of taller shrubs on exposed slopes facing the sea. DIPLADENIA

SANDERI ROSEA PINK Superb climber that will display pretty flowers from spring right through to the end of summer. It does not need much care and is very resistant to draught. Some sources say that Diplade-nia contains a toxic irritant which should not be touched or ingested.

DIPLADENIA SANDERI ROSEA RED Like the pink, these are both superb climbers displaying pretty flowers from spring right through to the end of sum-mer. They do not need much care and are very resistant to draught. Some sources say that Dipladenia contains a toxic irritant which should not be touched or ingested.

DIPLADENIA SANDERI ROSEA WHITE

ENSETE VENTRICOSUM MAURELII

Gives a real tropical feel: giant, jungle-like paddles of rich red and green leaves unfurl from the thick leafy trunk of this extremely fast growing banana-relative. Grow in Û a warm sunny spot with lots of water. Take the plant indoors and treat as a houseplant before the first frost, or for larger plants simp-ly dig them up, cut off their leaves and place in a dry, cool place over winter. The stumps should quickly start to regrow in Spring.

ARCHITECTURALARCHITECTURAL/6

DIETES BICOLOUR Forms clumps of erect sword-shaped leaves. The adult plant is approximately 1m wide and 1m tall.with leaves between 1 to 2cm wide. Light green in colour with a double central vein. They are arranged in flat fans similar to other members of the iris family. The plant spreads by means of its modified stems (rhizomes), which are located below the soil surface. The flowers are about 60 mm in diameter, flat, light yellow with brown markings and are produced on the ends of much branched flower stalks. The flowers only last for one day, but because so many buds are produced the plant is almost always in flower from October until January (spring and summer). The fruit is a club-shaped capsule approximately 25mm in diameter which partially splits to release the seeds. [Extract from The Daily Telegraph]

GASTERIA GREY WIND

GASTERIA EMERALD ISLE

GASTERIA LITTLE WARTY

SARRACENIA MINOR Known as the hooded pitcher plant. Each pitcher leaf ends in a re-curved hood, which serves very effectively as a way to trap insects. Bright reddish to pur-plish colours are an attractive signal.

NEPENTHES RAJAH HOOK—Nepenthes rajah is famous for its large pitchers (urn-like modified leaves), which allow the plants to catch and digest animals. Insects, and in particular ants, make up the majority of prey. However there are reliable obser-vations that, on occasion in the wild, rats have been trapped by this species.

DIONÆA MUSCIPULA The Venus flytrap is a miracle of nature. People do not think of plants moving, but the Venus flytrap can catch insects with its toothed modified leaves that snap shut when triggered by prey touching the tiny hairs on the inner leaf surface.
