Ericaceous compost is acidic and is beneficial for plants that like an acid soil. For example camellias, rhododendrons, erica’s etc.
Hydrangeas also benefit, making their colours more intense and also making certain flowers more blue in colour. The pH of an acidic soil is typically between 4.5 and 6.

Strobilanthes anisophyllus

A beautiful dark purple leafed, flowering plant in the family Acanthaceae.

A small evergreen (or ever purple) leaved perennial shrub. With small light pink flowers.

Prune it regularly, as the new growth has the best colouring.

It likes full sun but will appreciate some partial shade during hot summer afternoons.

Mostly native to tropical Asia and Madagascar, but with a few species extending north into temperate regions of Asia. Many species are cultivated for their two-lipped, hooded flowers in shades of blue, pink, white and purple.

For sale in South Africa.

Not often seen for sale – this wild dagga or lions tail plant has peach coloured flowers.

The bush is comprised of mostly erect branched stems topped with multiple ball-shaped inflorescences which bear the nectar-rich flowers – sunbirds love them. They also attract honey bees and other beneficial insects.

The Bush Bronze butterfly (Cacyreus lingeus Fam: Lycenidae) uses this plant as one of its larval food plants.

It can grow up to 2m high and 1m wide – slightly smaller than the common, orange version.

The generic name Leonotis is derived from the Greek words leon meaning lion and –otis meaning ear. This refers to the pubescent upper lip of each flower that resembles a lion’s ear, hence the vernacular name. The specific epithet leonurus means lion-coloured, a reference to the flower colour of some forms.

The Ginko Bilboa tree, also known as a maidenhair tree is a species of gymnosperm tree native to East Asia.

These little trees are currently in 10litre pots are approx 85cm tall.

Ginkos are the last living species in the order Ginkgoales, which first appeared over 290 million years ago, and fossils very similar to the living species, belonging to the genus Ginkgo, extend back to the Middle Jurassic epoch approximately 170 million years ago.

These beautiful trees normally eventually reach a height of 20–35 m. The tree has an angular crown and long, somewhat erratic branches, and is usually deep-rooted and resistant to wind and snow damage. Young trees are often tall and slender, and sparsely branched; the crown becomes broader as the tree ages. A combination of resistance to disease, insect-resistant wood, and the ability to form aerial roots and sprouts makes ginkgos durable, with some specimens claimed to be more than 2,500 years old.

The leaves are very distinctive in shape. Ginkgos are prized for their autumn foliage, which is a beautiful butter yellow.
