A dense growing multi stemmed variety prized for topiary and hedging, featured at Sissinghurst Castle. Bright blue flowers.
Mounding grey foliage plant resembling ballota, useful for larger coastal gardens where it forms an effective ground cover with westringea, correa, prostrate rosmary and native grasses. Can also be grown as a low hedge if planted 80cm apart.
The best dwarf "English" hedging lavender, which only grows to 60 cm or so. Trim after flowering to encourage bushy plants. Long-lived and not messy like other varieties.
White lace cap variety, flatter flowers with lilac centre buds; stable colour and lovely.
Medium hydrangea with large heads of blue lacecaps. Note all blue hydrangea need acid soil to produce correct colouring; in alkaline soil they will tend toward pink.
Tasmanian native bottlebrush with pale yellow flowers in spring. Makes a good bushy hedge, particularly good on clay soils. Trim annually for best results from an early age.
Drought hardy silver foliage plant for topiary and background, use in place of Italian lavenders which are disappointing and die out after a few years. Attractive blue flowers, drought tolerant.
Single, white flowered variety, shrubby in form, large flowers and strong growth habit. Clips nicely to form a mound of foliage or low hedge.
Flat white lacecaps on multi level horizontally tiered branches, a much admired classic form.
A wonderful variety with large white flowers like Romneya coulteri, unfortunately difficult to propagate so only a few.
Glossy green hedging shrub with sweetly fragrant white flowers in winter. Best in cool conditions.
Beautiful grey foliage variety with musk pink flowers in early summer. Trim as lavenders and salvia.

Medium deciduous shrub with clusters of white lacecap flowers in spring, followed by red berries during winter. Attractive specimen shrub with good autumn colour.

Portugese form of the pink rosemary, more true pink than Majorca pink and less upright, bushier and lower growing.
