New Catalogues Coming Soon - Best Plants of 2010 part 2

New catalogues from Tonkins Bulbs (Bryan H Tonkin),  Hillview Rare Plants and Drewitts Bulbs are all on the way late this week or early next week. 


From the new Tonkins Bulbs catalogue we are particularly fond of the miniature daffodils (hoop petticoat) and especially Narcissus Bulbocodium citronus with its lovely clear lemon flowers. Marcus Harvey has some great Calochortus with 'nudus' being our favourite, check out the cyclamen as well. Tim Drewitt has some great Dwarf Gladioli.  
Links to all of these will be at www.nurseriesonline.com.au as soon as the catalogues are finalised.


More of the best for 2010

At Wallara Roses the thornless roses 'Smoothtouch' were very popular with the  Grandma’s Rose and Grandpa's Rose (pictured left) from the Charmwell  range with the along with Golden Iceberg being sought after. Smooth Prince was another popular rose from Wallara Roses.


Moving North, Bob from Paradise Distributors reports that Jade vines and the White bat plant were really popular, if you have seen the flower of the White Bat Plant you would know why, check out the Photograph and fact sheet on Bat Plants.  Bob also gives mention to a few other sought after plants, these included, Brisbane lily (Proiphys cunninghamii), Heleconias in general were popular, Vanilla Orchid, Adenium obesum and the Bromeliad 'Aechmea fasciata' with its long lasting long lasting flower. Birds nest ferns and Hoyas were also popular. We think that the Yellow anthurium Black Anthurium are also great plants.


And we will have more later this week.....
