Native to the Mediterranean this plant is long believed to be an anaphrodisiac leading to its common name - Chaste Tree, but it's effectiveness remains unproven. A deciduous shrub which flowers lavender purple spires in mid-Summer. Grows to around 3m x 3m. Remarkably hardy handling -20℃ and heat tolerant. Requires a little additional water in dry times. Beautiful.

The dwarf Pomegranate is a natural variant of the species occurring throughout the Mediterranean and the Middle East. In our climate we have gained a new respect for this tough and beautiful deciduous plant, as during the current drought we have found the dwarf Pomegranate to be very durable. Our plants in ground have tolerated frost to -5℃ in Winter and 45℃ in Summer, all with limited rainfall (330mm in the last nine months) and two additional deep waterings. The plants are thriving and look fantastic in new Spring growth. We have kept them pruned to 70 x 70cm although they can reach 2m unpruned. The fruits are the size of golf balls and are very tasty. This plant would make a great hedge.

'Grey Edge' has very low water needs and is adaptive to most soils that have good drainage. Salt tolerant. Fertiliser not required. Handles heat, some frost and drought once established.

Olea europaea 'Piccolo'

Over a number of years we have planted a series of Olea europaea 'Piccolo' in really tough conditions - drought, frost, poor soil, no irrigation. With a little trimming they look stunning. Olives are known for their ability to survive low water conditions. They have deep roots that penetrate even our reactive clay soils. We are really impressed with this plant as we have had no need to provide any additional water. 'Piccolo' produces no fruit but does provide beauty with silver lanceolate leaves and extreme durability. Although they can grow to 2m, we keep ours to 1m in almost spherical mounds. They would also make a wonderful low hedge.
