Muscadine Grape - Adonis
$23.90 ($17.75-$79.00 choose a size)
Large ripe fruits (20-25mm) are golden bronze in colour, sweet and juicy with a delicious and distinctive fruity flavour. Highly disease resistant and should not require spraying making them ideal for coastal climates and the subtropics. This variety is owned by FAVGRO. The purchaser agrees that propagation of the vines for sale, without authorisation from the breeder is prohibited. They are vigorous vines and should not be planted where they can escape into native bushland, as they would quickly smother trees and shrubs around them.
Grevillea - Ivory Whip
$32.00
A spreading, fast growing medium size shrub with wonderful dense grey/green foliage and attractive clusters of large white blooms that blossom throughout the year. It grows 1-2 m wide and about 1.5m high Grevilleas do best by giving them an annual pruning for shape, health, and extra flowers. It would be great not to have to provide artificial food for birds and allow them to gorge themselves on the natural supply in our gardens. Little wrens just love the prickly Grevilleas and each garden should have at least one prickly plant, giving a home for small birds to hide from predators. Grafted grevilleas are more hardy in challenging soils and locations.
