On a quick trip to Cape Town in 2017 we first noticed this compact, dwarf Natal Plum growing in several public landscape installations. Firstly, it was used to grow as a dense ground cover and secondly, it was grown as a low hedge. Carissa macrocarpa 'Green Carpet' has glossy emerald-green leaves and can be used across a range of landscapes from formal clipped gardens, to a spillover plant in coastal plantings. Tolerant of coastal conditions, poor soils and drought once established. A more robust looking plant will be achieved with regular irrigation. Fragrant white star-like flowers in Spring. Edible bright red fruit follow in Summer. Tolerant of mild frosts only. 30cm high x 150cm wide.

A newer French cultivar with bright marine blue flowers and a compact (80cm) manageable habit. Blue flowering plants have an almost hypnotic appeal and in this vein 'Grand Bleu' is particularly enthralling. We have always found Caryopteris an interesting plant to incorporate in the garden but 'Grand Bleu' takes this interest to exciting new levels. What's not to like - compact, heat tolerant, drought hardy, frost tolerant and irresistible purple blue blooms!!
