Kiwi Fruit Vine: This is a self fertile kiwi vine.I tried to grow many from kiwi seeds but they wouldn't survive our summers so I bought 2 from a source in Ireland.These vines showed no signs of displeasure even in this heat.Now I can expect to get my own kiwi fruits in a couple of years.Will be planting this in soil in august.A single vine is said to produce 100lb of fruit

Miniature Adenium: Would you believe this specimen is two year old and hardly 3 inch in height.Miniature and variegated leaves.A rare exotic.

Paulownia-Royal Princess Tree:

If there was an award for the best tree in the world, this would definitely be the winner.Internet is full of praise for this tree but a pity that we dnt have this tree available at our nurseries.Only 2 years wait to smell the fragrance of foxglove like flowers of this tree from seed.It is known as the world's fastest growing tree.

French Cavalier:- Seeing is believing.

Adenium: "Jupiter" comes with beautiful color patters.White splash from throat and blue color make it an absolute wonder.

90% of daylilies are fragrant.
