Spreading, evergreen tree originally from South America widely planted in the early years of settlement as a shade tree. Semi-weeping in habit, it has willow-like leaves and small yellow-white flowers in spring that are followed by clusters of pea-sized pinkish-red berries. These are 'bird candy'.

This is a beautiful tree growing to 12m in height. It has elegant limbs with dappled cream and grey bark forming an erect multi-stemmed trunk. The foliage is graceful and fern like, forming an umbrella shaped crown. It has yellow flowers borne on short erect spikes in late summer to autumn. Whilst sometimes considered evergreen, it can lose much of its foliage during winter.

The largest growing of the Pear trees, this selection can reach to 20m in height. It has a broad pyramidal shape and makes an excellent street or specimen tree. The leaves are wide, shiny, dark green and almost heart shaped. In spring it is covered in a profusion of small white scented flowers followed by small yellow brown fruit.

A medium growing Australian native tree often reaches 10m in height. Prefers a site with good moisture and makes a very effective screen. The highlight is when the plant comes into flower late spring to summer. It is covered in masses of white fluffy flowers in cylindrical spikes. This tree makes a truly spectacular addition to any garden.
