Enriched Planting Mix is a certified organic blend of Pure Magic Compost, composted animal manure, gypsum, composted coarse bark and a wetting agent, bagged in 30L. It is built to be dug through existing garden soil at planting time rather than used on its own, and the gypsum is what sets it apart from a plain compost.
Gypsum helps break up heavy clay so water and roots can move through it, while the compost and manure return organic matter and nutrient to tired ground. The coarse bark holds structure and keeps air around the root zone, and the wetting agent keeps moisture in the soil longer after rain or watering.
Use it when planting trees, shrubs, roses, fruit trees and exotic garden plants, particularly into clay. Dig a hole twice the width of the pot and 7 centimetres deeper, then mix roughly one third planting mix through the excavated soil. Spread 7 centimetres of that improved soil in the base before setting the plant in.
About Enriched Planting Mix
It is a blend of Pure Magic Compost, composted animal manure, gypsum, composted coarse bark and a wetting agent. Each part has a job. The compost and manure supply organic matter and nutrient, the gypsum works on clay structure, the bark keeps air around the roots and the wetting agent holds moisture in the soil.
It suits exotic garden plants, including roses, ornamental and deciduous trees, fruit trees, shrubs and perennials, and it earns its keep most on heavy clay sites. It is a planting mix rather than a potting mix, so its job is improving soil at planting time. Phosphorus sensitive natives are the one clear exception.
No, not for the phosphorus sensitive ones. The composted animal manure in this blend lifts phosphorus well above what Proteaceae such as Banksia, Grevillea, Hakea and Protea will tolerate, and the result can be leaf burn, dieback and plant death. Use the Native Potting Mix for those species, or plant them into unimproved local soil.
Yes. It is a certified organic product with no chemical additives, which is why the manure and compost in it are fully composted rather than raw. That makes it sound around fruit trees and vegetable beds, and it means you are adding genuine organic matter to your soil rather than a synthetic conditioner.
Work on roughly one third planting mix to two thirds of the soil you dug out of the hole. For a shrub out of a 200 millimetre pot that is only a few litres. An advanced tree going into a large hole will take considerably more. Judge the quantity by the volume of the hole rather than the size of the plant.
It is not a potting mix and should not be used on its own in a container. The blend is designed to be diluted through garden soil, and used straight in a pot it holds too much water and settles badly. For containers, reach for a premium potting mix, or the native mix if you are potting natives.
Yes. Water the plant well several hours before you plant it, then water thoroughly again once the hole is backfilled and the soil firmed down. That first deep watering settles the improved soil around the root ball and drives out air pockets. Keep the water up over the first few months while the roots establish.

Acacia cognata 'Lime Magik' holds soft weeping lime-green foliage year round on a neat mounding frame, giving colour and movement in positions where a flowering plant would only deliver for a few weeks. The fine texture reads as a bright accent against darker foliage and hard landscaping.
'Lime Magik' grows to 1 to 2 metres tall and 1 to 2 metres wide at 50 to 70 centimetres per year, holding a naturally rounded shape without pruning. That compact size suits mass planting along a border, underplanting beneath established trees, or a single specimen in a decorative pot.
This Australian native prefers full sun and free-draining soil, and grows across a wide range from subtropical Queensland through to Melbourne and Adelaide. It is frost sensitive, so in cold inland districts choose a protected position or grow it in a pot that can be moved.
About Acacia cognata 'Lime Magik'
'Lime Magik' grows to 1 to 2 metres tall and 1 to 2 metres wide, forming a neat rounded mound. It is one of the more compact Acacia cognata selections and holds its shape without pruning.
It grows at 50 to 70 centimetres per year once established, reaching its mature size within two to three seasons in a warm, free-draining position.
No. 'Lime Magik' is frost sensitive and may suffer damage in frost. Choose a protected position in cold districts, or grow it in a pot that can be moved under cover through winter.
Yes. Its compact mounding habit and weeping foliage make it an excellent pot specimen for courtyards and entries. Use a free-draining mix and avoid letting the pot sit wet.
Yes. Acacia cognata is an Australian native and 'Lime Magik' is a compact cultivar selected for its bright lime foliage and tidy mounding form.
It works best in mass plantings along borders and driveways, as underplanting beneath taller feature trees, or as a single specimen in a pot. Give it full sun for the brightest foliage colour.
Very little. A light tip prune after the main growth flush keeps the mound tight, but it holds a rounded shape naturally. Avoid cutting back hard into old wood.
Acmena smithii 'Sublime' is a compact evergreen lilly pilly with vivid lime-green new growth that matures to deep glossy green. Its naturally upright columnar habit delivers dense coverage from base to tip, making it one of the cleanest, lowest-maintenance screening plants available.
Sublime grows to around 5 metres tall and just 2-3 metres wide, holding a tight column with minimal pruning. The narrow form suits tight boundary lines, pool surrounds, and structured hedges. A non-invasive root system and strong psyllid resistance make it a reliable, well-behaved alternative to more vigorous screening species.
Sublime tolerates clay soils, light frost, and moderate drought once established. It thrives across temperate to subtropical regions of NSW, QLD, VIC and parts of SA and WA, in full sun to part shade.
About Acmena smithii 'Sublime' Lilly Pilly
Sublime grows to around 5 metres tall and just 2-3 metres wide, with a naturally upright columnar form.
Sublime is fast-growing, adding 50-80cm per year once established.
Yes. Acmena smithii 'Sublime' has strong psyllid resistance, so it holds clean, unblemished foliage where older lilly pilly types can suffer pimple-like leaf damage.
Yes. The dense columnar habit makes Sublime ideal for narrow hedges, screens, and pool surrounds where clean form is needed.
No. Sublime has a non-invasive root system, making it a safer choice near paving, pools, and boundaries than more vigorous screening species.
Plant 60-80cm apart for a dense formal hedge, or 1 metre for a more relaxed screen.
Sublime thrives across temperate to subtropical regions of NSW, QLD, VIC and parts of SA and WA, tolerating clay soils, light frost, and moderate drought once established.
Rhaphiolepis indica 'Oriental Pearl' is one of the best compact evergreen shrubs available for low hedges and borders. The glossy dark green foliage forms a naturally tidy rounded mound, and clusters of soft white to pale pink flowers appear from late winter into spring, followed by small dark berries.
Oriental Pearl grows to just 1-1.5 metres tall and wide, holding a neat uniform shape with minimal pruning. The compact form makes it ideal for low clipped hedges, narrow borders, mass plantings, and container planting, particularly where space is limited and a formal finish is wanted.
Oriental Pearl thrives across most Australian climates in full sun to part shade, tolerating heat, coastal exposure, salt spray, light frost, and a wide range of well-drained soils. It is both drought tolerant and salt tolerant once established, making it a reliable low-maintenance choice for coastal and low-water gardens.
About Rhaphiolepis indica 'Oriental Pearl'
Rhaphiolepis indica 'Oriental Pearl' grows to 1-1.5 metres tall and wide, forming a naturally compact dense mound.
Oriental Pearl has a moderate growth rate of 20-40cm per year once established.
Yes. Oriental Pearl is one of the best compact evergreen shrubs for low hedges, borders, and mass plantings, holding a tidy rounded form with minimal pruning.
Oriental Pearl produces clusters of soft white to pale pink flowers from late winter into spring, followed by small dark berries.
Yes. Oriental Pearl is both drought tolerant and salt tolerant once established, making it well suited to coastal gardens and low-water landscapes.
Plant 50-70cm apart for a continuous low hedge, or 80cm-1 metre for a softer informal border.
Oriental Pearl thrives across most Australian climates in full sun to part shade, tolerating heat, coastal exposure, and a wide range of well-drained soils.
Casuarina glauca 'Cousin It' forms a dense mat of fine weeping needle-like foliage just 20 to 30 centimetres high, cascading beautifully over walls, edges and rock work. It reads as flowing texture rather than as a conventional groundcover, which is why designers use it so heavily.
'Cousin It' spreads 2 to 4 metres wide at 30 to 50 centimetres per year, filling in steadily without becoming invasive or needing to be cut back. It suppresses weeds once established, holds soil on banks and batters, and works equally well spilling from a raised planter or a large pot.
This Australian native tolerates light to moderate frost once established, along with salt, wind, poor soils and extended dry. It grows in full sun to part shade and needs essentially no maintenance beyond the occasional tidy of a wayward runner.
About Casuarina glauca 'Cousin It'
'Cousin It' stays just 20 to 30 centimetres tall and spreads 2 to 4 metres wide. It is a genuinely prostrate form and will not build up in height over time.
It spreads at 30 to 50 centimetres per year, filling in steadily. Expect two to three seasons to close a mass planting depending on spacing.
Yes. Casuarina glauca is naturally a coastal and estuarine species, and 'Cousin It' inherits strong salt and wind tolerance, which makes it excellent for seaside gardens.
Yes. Once the mat closes over it forms dense cover that suppresses most weed germination, which is a large part of its value in commercial and civic landscapes.
Yes. It is particularly effective spilling over the edge of a large pot, raised planter or retaining wall, where the cascading habit can be seen.
Plant 1 to 1.5 metres apart for a continuous mass. Closer spacing closes the gaps faster but the plants will eventually merge regardless.
It handles light to moderate frost once established. Protect young plants through their first winter in colder inland districts.
Acacia cognata 'Copper Tips' is a compact Australian native shrub with fine, weeping foliage and warm copper coloured new growth. The narrow phyllodes hang in soft curtains from a low mounded frame, and the bronze tips sit against the green for most of the year, giving a plant that changes colour without ever flowering hard.
It takes full sun to part shade and wants well drained soil above all else. Growth is moderate to fast at 20 to 40 centimetres a year, and established plants tolerate drought and light to moderate frost. It suits temperate and Mediterranean districts, coastal gardens and courtyards, and needs very little attention once settled.
Use it for low hedging, mass planting along a driveway, soft edging to paths and beds, or as a container plant beside a doorway. The flowing texture reads well beside bold, architectural foliage and against rendered walls or stone. For a low native planting that stays neat without regular clipping, it is a dependable choice.
About Copper Tips Acacia
It is a dwarf cultivated form of the River Wattle, an Australian native from the pea family. Unlike its tall parent it stays low and mounded, with very fine weeping foliage and copper toned new shoots. It is grown for foliage texture and colour rather than flower, and is used for low hedging, borders, mass planting and pots.
It reaches about 1 to 1.5 metres high and 1 to 2 metres wide, so it finishes wider than it is tall. That proportion makes it useful as a low mound or a flowing edge rather than a screen. Plants in pots stay at the smaller end of the range and hold a tighter shape.
Yes, it is one of the better wattles for containers. Use a large pot with free draining native potting mix and make sure the drainage holes stay clear, since it will not tolerate sitting water. Water regularly through summer, as pots dry far faster than garden beds, and repot or root prune every few years to keep it vigorous.
Full sun gives the densest habit and the strongest copper colour on the new growth. It also grows happily in part shade, though the plant opens up and the tip colour is more muted. Deep shade is not suitable. Whatever the aspect, drainage matters more than light, so avoid low spots where water collects.
It handles light to moderate frost once established, which suits most temperate and inland gardens. Young plants going into their first winter in a cold district are worth protecting with a cover on the worst nights. Frost may bronze the outer foliage, and that damage grows out through spring without any need for pruning.
Flowering is sporadic and slight. Small pale yellow flowers may appear here and there, but this selection is grown for its foliage and many plants flower very little or not at all in a given year. If you want a wattle for a strong seasonal flower display, a taller species will serve you better.
Water through the first summer, mulch lightly and keep phosphorus rich fertiliser away from it. A light trim over the whole surface after the main flush of new growth keeps the mound dense and encourages fresh copper tips. Never cut back into bare old wood, because it will not reshoot from there.
Trachelospermum jasminoides 'Balls' is Star Jasmine grown and clipped into a dense evergreen sphere. The small glossy leaves sit tight on a woody framework, holding a clean rounded outline year round. White pinwheel flowers open in spring and carry a strong sweet scent right across a courtyard.
Ball specimens hold at about 1 to 1.5 metres tall and wide with light clipping. Full sun to part shade suits them, in any free draining soil. Growth is slow to moderate at 30 to 50 centimetres a year. They handle coastal exposure, light frost and dry spells once the roots are down.
Repeat them along a driveway, either side of an entry, or in pots on a terrace where a formal shape is wanted straight away. They read as structure in a planting scheme without the height of a hedge, and because the form is already trained, a new garden looks settled from the day it goes in.
About Star Jasmine Balls
They are Trachelospermum jasminoides, the common Star Jasmine, grown and clipped into a dense evergreen sphere on a woody framework. Instead of climbing, the plant is trained into a self supporting rounded shape. The foliage is small, glossy and dark green, and the plant carries scented white flowers through spring.
They hold at roughly 1 to 1.5 metres tall and 1 to 1.5 metres wide. Growth is slow to moderate at 30 to 50 centimetres a year, so a light clip once or twice a year keeps the ball tight at whatever size within that range suits the setting.
Full sun to part shade both work. Full sun gives the densest foliage and the heaviest flowering, while part shade produces slightly softer, more open growth and fewer flowers. Avoid deep shade, where the ball thins out and loses its outline. Morning sun with afternoon protection suits hot inland gardens.
Yes, and pots are one of the main uses. A container 50 to 60 centimetres wide with a quality free draining mix will hold a ball for years. Water more often than you would in the ground, especially in summer, and feed in spring and again in late summer. Refresh the mix every few years.
Yes, the foliage is held year round. The glossy dark green leaves take on a bronze tinge in cold weather and green up again in spring, but the plant never goes bare. That is what makes it useful as permanent structure in a scheme, particularly in winter once perennials have died back.
Flowering runs through spring, roughly September to November, and often carries into early summer in warmer districts. The white pinwheel flowers are small but produced in quantity, and the scent is strong on still evenings. Flowering is heaviest on plants in full sun that were not clipped hard just before bud set.
Clip lightly with hedging shears once after flowering and again in late summer if needed, taking only the new growth to keep the outline crisp. Water deeply in dry weather, mulch the base, and feed in early spring. The sap is milky and can irritate skin, so wear gloves when trimming.
Westringia fruticosa, Coastal Rosemary, is an Australian native evergreen shrub from the headlands and dunes of the east coast. It builds a dense rounded bush of fine grey green leaves held in whorls, with small white to pale lilac flowers. Despite the common name it is not the culinary herb.
Mature plants sit at 1.5 to 2 metres tall and 1.5 to 2 metres wide, growing 30 to 60 centimetres a year, and they clip smaller without complaint. Full sun to part shade and sharp drainage are the requirements. Salt wind, sandy soil, drought and light to moderate frost are all handled.
It is a standard on coastal projects, road verges, council garden beds and exposed banks that need erosion cover. Plant 1 to 1.5 metres apart for an informal screen, or 80 centimetres for a clipped hedge. A single plant fills a 40 to 50 centimetre pot on a courtyard or balcony.
About Coastal Rosemary
Westringia fruticosa is an Australian native evergreen shrub from the headlands and dunes of the east coast. It forms a dense rounded bush of fine grey green leaves held in whorls, with small white to pale lilac flowers. Despite the common name it is not culinary rosemary and is not used in cooking.
Mature plants reach 1.5 to 2 metres tall and 1.5 to 2 metres wide. It clips readily to smaller dimensions and is often maintained at around a metre as a hedge or a low mound. Growth is moderate, roughly 30 to 60 centimetres a year, so it holds a trimmed shape well.
It is one of the best shrubs available for exposed coastal work. It grows naturally on sea cliffs and copes with salt laden wind, sand and reflected heat. It is used constantly on beachfront reserves, dune stabilisation projects and seaside gardens where little else holds a tidy shape.
The main flush is spring and summer, roughly September through February, with scattered flowering at other times of the year in mild districts. The flowers are small, white to pale lilac and sit among the foliage rather than above it. Clipped hedges flower less than plants left to grow informally.
Space plants 80 centimetres apart for a tight formal hedge, or 1 to 1.5 metres apart for a dense informal screen. On banks and batters used for erosion cover, 1 metre in a staggered grid gives full ground coverage within about two growing seasons.
Yes. A pot 40 to 50 centimetres wide suits a single plant for a courtyard, entry or balcony. Use a free draining mix, because the roots will not tolerate sitting wet. Container plants need watering more often than those in the ground, plus a light trim to hold their shape.
Trim lightly two or three times a year, taking the soft new growth and avoiding cuts into bare old wood, which reshoots poorly. Water through the first summer, then only in extended dry spells. On most soils it needs no feeding at all, and it resents heavy watering and poor drainage.
Acacia pendula, the Weeping Myall, is a graceful, long-lived Australian native valued for its soft silver-grey foliage and elegant cascading form. The fine weeping branches give it a quiet, sculptural presence, and pale yellow ball-shaped flowers appear in spring to support native pollinators.
Weeping Myall grows to 6-10 metres tall and 4-6 metres wide. The refined weeping habit makes it a striking feature tree in dryland and native gardens, along rural driveways, and mass planted in avenue and shelterbelt designs where structure and movement are wanted.
Weeping Myall thrives in full sun and well-drained soils including clay, loam, and sand. Once established it tolerates drought, heavy frost, light frost, periodic waterlogging, and saline conditions, making it one of the hardiest feature trees available for inland and low-input landscapes across NSW, QLD, VIC, and SA.

Very little. A light tip prune after the main growth flush keeps the mound tight, but it holds a rounded shape naturally. Avoid cutting back hard into old wood.
Acacia cognata 'Waterfall' Standard is the cascading native wattle Acacia cognata 'Waterfall' grafted onto a clear straight trunk, producing a striking weeping mophead with fine soft foliage tumbling like a waterfall from a single feature stem. The result is one of the most distinctive native standards available in Australia.
Waterfall Standards arrive at the trunk height ordered, typically 80cm to 1.2 metres, with a weeping head that cascades 1-1.5 metres outward and downward from the graft point. The compact form, soft texture, and feature stem make it ideal for courtyards, formal entrances, balcony pots, and feature planting where movement and contrast are wanted.
Acacia 'Waterfall' is drought tolerant once established and tolerates light frost, performing well across most of southern and eastern Australia. Pale yellow ball-shaped flowers appear in clusters in late winter to early spring. Plan for a medium-term feature plant: standards typically live 8-15 years before needing replacement, which is shorter than many longer-lived trees but still excellent value for the visual impact.
About Acacia cognata 'Waterfall' Standard Wattle
An Acacia 'Waterfall' Standard is the cascading native wattle Acacia cognata 'Waterfall' grafted onto a clear straight trunk. The result is a striking weeping mophead with fine soft foliage tumbling like a waterfall from a single feature stem.
Our Waterfall Standards arrive at the trunk height you order, typically 80cm-1.2 metres. The weeping head cascades 1-1.5 metres outward and downward from the graft point.
Waterfall has a moderate growth rate of 20-40cm of new cascading foliage per year once established.
Yes. Acacia cognata is native to eastern Australia, ranging from VIC through to southern NSW. 'Waterfall' is a selected weeping cultivar of the species.
Waterfall produces small clusters of pale yellow ball-shaped flowers in late winter to early spring (July to September across Australia). The display is subtle compared to other wattles.
Yes. Waterfall Standards are excellent in large pots (40L+) and widely used as a feature plant in courtyards, entrances, and balcony planting where the cascading head can be appreciated.
Waterfall Standards typically live 8-15 years. They are a medium-term feature plant rather than a long-lived tree, so plan for eventual replacement.
Acacia floribunda covers itself in masses of pale cream-yellow rod-shaped flowers through spring, held against fine weeping foliage that gives the whole plant a soft gossamer quality. It is one of the most graceful wattles and among the fastest ways to build a screen.
The Gossamer Wattle grows to 5 to 8 metres tall and 3 to 5 metres wide at 60 to 90 centimetres per year, branching densely to ground level with a weeping habit. It is used for fast privacy screening, rural windbreaks, and as a nurse crop sheltering slower long-term plantings while they establish.
This Australian native tolerates light to moderate frost once established, along with poor soils, coastal exposure and extended dry. Like most fast wattles it is relatively short-lived at 15 to 20 years, which suits its role as a quick screen rather than a permanent tree.
About Acacia floribunda
The Gossamer Wattle reaches 5 to 8 metres tall and 3 to 5 metres wide, branching densely to ground level with a soft weeping habit.
Fast, at 60 to 90 centimetres per year. It will form a usable privacy screen within two to three years of planting.
Masses of pale cream-yellow rod-shaped flowers appear through spring and into summer, attracting bees, native pollinators and small insect-feeding birds.
Like most fast-growing wattles it is relatively short-lived at 15 to 20 years. Use it as a quick screen or nurse crop while slower long-term species establish.
It handles light to moderate frost once established. Protect young plants through their first winter in colder inland districts.
Yes. It tolerates coastal exposure and sandy soils well and is widely used in coastal revegetation and shelterbelt planting.
Plant 2 to 3 metres apart for a dense fast screen or windbreak, or 4 to 5 metres apart where each plant should develop its full weeping form.

Acacia pendula, the Weeping Myall, is a graceful, long-lived Australian native valued for its soft silver-grey foliage and elegant cascading form. The fine weeping branches give it a quiet, sculptural presence, and pale yellow ball-shaped flowers appear in spring to support native pollinators.
Weeping Myall grows to 6-10 metres tall and 4-6 metres wide. The refined weeping habit makes it a striking feature tree in dryland and native gardens, along rural driveways, and mass planted in avenue and shelterbelt designs where structure and movement are wanted.
Weeping Myall thrives in full sun and well-drained soils including clay, loam, and sand. Once established it tolerates drought, heavy frost, light frost, periodic waterlogging, and saline conditions, making it one of the hardiest feature trees available for inland and low-input landscapes across NSW, QLD, VIC, and SA.
About Acacia pendula Weeping Myall
Acacia pendula grows to 6-10 metres tall and 4-6 metres wide with a graceful weeping form and silver-grey foliage.
Weeping Myall is fast-growing, adding 60cm to 1 metre per year once established.
Yes. Acacia pendula is native to inland eastern Australia, ranging across NSW, QLD, and parts of VIC and SA, where it grows naturally on clay plains and watercourses.
Yes. Weeping Myall is tolerant of heavy frost and extended dry periods once established, and also handles light frost and periodic waterlogging, making it a very hardy choice.
Yes. Weeping Myall is evergreen, holding its silver-grey foliage year-round on long drooping branches.
Weeping Myall thrives across most of Australia, particularly inland NSW, QLD, VIC, and SA. It tolerates a wide range of soils including heavy clay.
Plant 3-4 metres apart for a feature row or informal screen, or 5-6 metres for individual canopy spread.
