Hellebores Pretty Faces of Winter and Adeniums


Hellebores, also known as the Christmas and Lenten roses, are the classic winter perennial. When most other ornamental plants have tucked their flowers well and truly away these hardy souls provide us with an exuberant display of outstanding foliage and wonderful early blooms right throughout the cold and gloomy season. Read the Full Article On Hellebores

Adenium Obesum and other adenium plants are native to tropical and subtropical eastern Eastern Africa and Northern Arabia. Adeniums require full sun for proper care but can be grown indoors if they recieve full light near a window. Sandy's Adeniums is a new addition to our Adenium Nurseries

New Rose Releases and Some Very Special Liliums

Treloars Roses have releases a new range of roses, we particularly like LUPO (Kordwarul) 


LUPO (pictured left) is  Miniature Rose. Very dense and compact, a  miniature rose that grows around 50cm high x 40cm wide. It produces a mass of deep purple to carmine red flowers repeatedly that are as good in brilliance as they are in resistance to the elements. A great rose for landscaping purposes with many hips produced in Autumn also. Fragrance free blooms.


More new release roses on the Front Page of www.nurseriesonline.com.au over the next few weeks


LILIUMS
We hear a lot about the spectacular Liliums and people usually talk about the Asiatic Liliums and the Oriental Liliums, now they are really great plants with fantastic flowers however often neglected and often just as fascinating are the species Liliums, and if you are looking for Liliums that are just a little bit different then its hard to go past some of the species Liliums available. 


We list some of the best growers of species Liliums in Australia including Tonkins Bulbs and Hillview Rare Plants, you can find them all on our Liliums page. In terms of species Liliums we really like Lilium Japonicum from Hillview Rare Plants and Lilium Lankongense from Byan H Tonkin, both worth a place in the garden. 


And while we are talking about new Catalogues Paradise Distributors have just updated their catalogue as well, see www.nurseriesonline.com.au for details.
