Ficus Lyrata

Native to tropical western Africa, Ficus lyrata, commonly known as the fiddle-leaf fig, has very large green leaves with a leather-like texture. Although Ficus lyrata grows naturally in lowland tropical forests it can thrive in a large range of environments. Place in bright indirect sunlight, on the ground where it can grow up to 6' tall. Keep soil moist.

Beautiful evergreen foliage adds rich texture to a wide range of uses. Ideal for landscapes, erosion control, or in mixed containers.

Exposure: Shade, Partial Sun

Height: 3 - 5" 

Width: 10 - 14" 

 Elegant lacy leaves form a very dense and bushy clump. This dwarf plant does not demand the same space as the standard Goats beard, and is somewhat inclined to sulk in hot summer areas, so plant in a moist, peaty soil, or even at the waterside. Cut plants back in summer if they look untidy.

An excellent companion to summer-blooming shrub roses. Good for cutting, the flowers may also be dried by hanging upside down in a warm, dark room.

Produces much higher yields of foliage than other dill varieties. The dark green, ferny leaves also have a distinct, strong aroma that adds depth to any fish, vegetable or pasta dish. Vigorous plants are topped with very large umbels.

Height: 30 - 40"

Vigorous, versatile plants are superior performers in sun and shade. Vibrant orange foliage glows.

Exposure: Shade, Sun

Height: 14 - 28"

David Austin Roses were not developed for Zone 3. BUT it is possible to have success here in Manitoba by following a few key tips. 

_________________________________________________________________________

You have three options, you can enjoy your David Austin Rose for a single season. You can plan to bring your potted David Austin Rose into a warmer winter environment, or you can plant it into the ground.

If you decide to enjoy your rose for the summer:

Feel free to drop your potted David Austin Rose into a decor pot of your liking, but do not pot it up into a larger size planter. You do not want to set back your rose. We use our Rose and Perennial Mix when potting up all our David Austin Roses and other than fertilizing your rose every other week they are simple to care for. In our experience you should have blooms from late June right through till fall.

If you decide to grow and over winter your rose in a pot:

 First, you must be sure you have a place to overwinter your David Austin Rose and you should pot up your rose into a planter large enough for min of 2 years growth, using our rose and perennial mix. 

Do not use pro mix. 

A heated garage or sunroom that can be set between -2C and -5C. You will also need to keep your rose away from doors that open to -35C or colder. Your Rose needs to go dormant for a few months. Once the temp is over zero C you will see your rose begin to send out new shoots. At this point natural light is necessary and the temperature should not go below -1C at night. It is important to keep your shrub moist but not wet. Check temperature regularly. Do not bring it into the house! Roses can handle cool nights and warmer days.

If you decide to plant your rose in the ground:

Choose a location that is not in line with strong north winds

Plant the crown (this is where the roots end and the woody shrub begins) of your rose 6”-12” below the surface of the soil. As your shrub will be in full leaf at time of purchase you can clean off leaves that will get buried if you like.

In the fall you will need to cover with a deep layer of mulch. Wood mulch, straw, leaves or a combination of all. Use a burlap tarp (Not Plastic) to cover and hold down with rocks or stakes. This will ensure the mulch is not blown away. A full wheelbarrow or more per rose is not out of the question. Throughout the winter direct your snow clearing efforts to cover your roses as well. The more insulation the better.

Don’t remove the tarp and mulch until night temperatures are consistently hovering about zero to +3 with no threat of deep freeze, as we sometimes see in April.

We hope you enjoy growing your David Austin Rose.

Bergenia is incredibly hardy and reliable throughout nearly the entire continent. Plants form a low clump of bold, leathery green leaves, which often turn bronze during winter. Short stems of pink flowers rise above the shiny foliage in mid spring.

Tolerates a wide range of soil conditions, in both sun or part shade.

Light Requirements

Philodendron 'Green Congo Nuclear' thrives in bright, indirect light. Direct sunlight should be avoided to prevent leaf burn, while too little light can lead to loss of variegation.

Watering Schedule

Water when the top inch of soil feels dry. Over-watering can lead to root rot, so ensure good drainage. In winter, reduce watering frequency.

Zinnia elegans. Scores of 5cm (2") wide, blood-red flowers appear high atop medium-green plants that grow to 75cm (30") tall. The stems are strong and upright, and ideal as cut flowers. Each time they are cut, the stem divides to produce even more flowers.

Lime green foliage with a constrasting red edge. Hot pink flowers. A perfect addition to the front of the perennial border, and works great in containers.
