Amelanchier + Pittosporum + Pachysandra

Pittosporum Golf Ball is a neat forming, rounded New Zealand shrub.  This plant is ideal for adding structure and architectural interest to the planting scheme and also makes a great low hedge.  Small purple flowers appear in late spring and early summer with a sweet, honey-like scent.  Frost hardy and likes a spot in the full sun and partial shade with a moist, well-drained soil.  Grows to a height of 1m but can be trimmed to retain a smaller shape.

Trimming: Trim regularly to maintain the compact, rounded shape. Light pruning can be done throughout the growing season. A more substantial trim can be done in late spring after the risk of frost has passed.

Fertilising: Apply a balanced, slow-release fertiliser in early spring to support healthy growth. Avoid over-fertilising, which can lead to excessive, weak growth.

Watering: Water regularly during the establishment phase. Once established, Pittosporum Golf Ball is relatively drought-tolerant but benefits from occasional deep watering during prolonged dry periods. Ensure the soil is well-draining to prevent root rot.

Pest Control: Generally pest-free, but monitor for scale insects and aphids. Treat infestations with insecticidal soap or horticultural oil if necessary.

Disease Management: Watch for signs of root rot and leaf spot. Root rot can occur in poorly draining soil, so ensure good drainage and avoid waterlogging. Leaf spot appears as dark spots on the leaves and can be treated with appropriate fungicides. Ensure good air circulation and avoid overhead watering to minimise disease risk. Remove any affected foliage to prevent the spread of disease.

Amelanchier canadensis, commonly known as the Canadian Serviceberry or Shadbush, is a versatile deciduous shrub or small tree appreciated for its ornamental beauty and edible berries. This plant features clusters of delicate white flowers in early spring, followed by small, dark purple fruit in summer, and vibrant red and orange foliage in autumn.

The Canadian Serviceberry is ideal for use as a specimen plant, in mixed borders, or as part of a naturalised garden setting. Its attractive multi-seasonal interest makes it a great choice for woodland gardens, wildlife gardens, and even edible landscapes due to its fruit, which is a favourite of birds and can be used in jams and pies.

It suits cottage gardens, woodland gardens, and wildlife gardens. Its graceful form and seasonal changes make it an attractive addition to almost any garden style. Amelanchier canadensis thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers well-drained, moist soil. It is adaptable to a range of soil types but performs best in slightly acidic conditions.

When planting, space the Canadian Serviceberry approximately 2-3 metres apart to allow for its mature spread. This plant typically reaches a height of 4-6 metres with a spread of 3-4 metres.

Trimming: Minimal pruning is required. Remove dead, damaged, or crossing branches in late winter or early spring to maintain shape and encourage healthy growth.

Fertilising: Apply a balanced, slow-release fertiliser in early spring to support growth and flowering. A mulch of well-rotted compost or organic matter around the base will improve soil health.

Watering: Water regularly during the first year to establish a strong root system. Once established, it is relatively drought-tolerant but benefits from occasional deep watering in prolonged dry spells.

Pest Control: Generally pest-resistant, but watch for aphids or sawfly larvae. Treat with insecticidal soap or neem oil if infestations occur.

Disease Management: Amelanchier is susceptible to powdery mildew and rust in humid conditions. Ensure good air circulation, remove affected leaves, and avoid overhead watering to minimise fungal issues.

Pachysandra terminalis Green Sheen or commonly known as Japanese Spurge, is an excellent evergreen ground cover plant that features glossy, dark green leaves with a unique sheen that reflects the sunlight beautifully. Growing up to 20-30cm high and spreading to fill in space over time, it's perfect for filling in shaded areas under trees or shrubs, or on slopes where it can help prevent soil erosion.

Thriving in partial to full shade, this low-maintenance plant is highly valued for its year-round interest and robust growth in challenging garden areas. In spring, it produces small, fragrant white flowers that add a touch of delicacy against the backdrop of its glossy leaves. Tolerant of dry shade once established, it appreciates well-drained, humus-rich soil and regular watering in dry periods to maintain its vigour and lustre. Green Sheen is a great choice for low-maintenance gardens, providing an attractive, reliable cover that's both functional and visually appealing.
