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.

Carissa 'Desert Star' has a few common names in its native South Africa. Amatungulu is its Zulu name, otherwise it is referred to as Num-Num or Natal Plum. It is incredibly tough, drought resistant and easy to grow, although it doesn't appreciate frost. 'Desert Star' has large leathery, glossy, dark green leaves and wonderfully scented star-like white flowers. Red fruits are produced intermittently and are edible. It also has some Y-shaped thorns but these are greatly reduced in comparison to the original species. 'Desert Star' makes a very attractive hedge or specimen plant and is easily clipped to shape. Great for coastal conditions. Reaches to 1.5m x 1m wide.

Lime green buds open to pure white mop head flowers. In contrast the flowers fade to stunning Autumnal tones. 'Agnes Pavelli' forms a neat compact shrub, smaller than 'Le Cygne'. As with all Hydrangeas, they perform best if protected from direct sunlight in the middle of the day. Makes for a wonderful cut flower that ages beautifully.

Bred in Germany in 1962, 'Leuchtfeuer' is a superb deep pink to rosy red flowering Hydrangea. This compact plant has glossy green foliage (with red edges in Autumn) and blooms over a long period. Add lime to the soil to keep the colour true to the fiery pink. Makes a great cut flower. Leuchtfeuer translates to beacon in English.
