Tropical Garden Style

16/12/2024

A few things in flower in December- and a bit special, first the red flowered Jatropha (Spicy Jatropha), native to Cuba. This is a lovely shrub in subtropical areas that is very hard to find.
Next a great Frangipani, George Brown, flowered all summer and is a unique colour mix!
Also, a general view of my growing area featuring some Royal Poinciana- one of the most striking subtropical trees out there.
Last but not least the gorgeous purple Petrea- a tropical version of Wisteria that flowers at least twice a year, a very drought hardy and no fuss climber.

Available Soon, the rare and fragrant Climbing Frangipani- please leave a comment if you are interested in buying one of these rare beauties!

Large plants on tripod stakes, flowering size. These will be available on pre order for next week... and have been propagated from mature wood, meaning strong growth and guaranteed flowers, unlike cheaper plants sometimes offered that will struggle to establish and fail to flower. Please indicate quantity required, as limited numbers will be available based on your replies, at $38. Thank you.
