Hibiscus mutabilis (Confederate Rose / Cotton Rose)
Hibiscus mutabilis (Confederate Rose / Cotton Rose)
This is a beauty we found flowering in a garden in late summer in Waihi. The Cotton Rose has quite large semi-double white flowers which gradually turn pale pink before aging dark pink. All present on the tree at one time. A good food source for bees. The large grass green, maple shaped leaves are soft in texture. These turn butter yellow in autumn, deciduous. A stunning, upright small tree for mild climates or a multi-leadered shrub in cooler places. Can be pruned to maintain as a shrub.

Tree lucerne (Tagasaste; Chamaecytisus proliferus var palmensis)
Tree lucerne (Tagasaste; Chamaecytisus proliferus var palmensis)
Tree lucerne is a versatile, small, fast growing tree. It flowers during the winter and is an important food source for birds and bees. We have a pair of kereru which spend a couple of months at our place each year during winter feeding on the tree lucerne. We have planted it through all of our shelter lines as a ‘nurse crop’, to provide initial wind shelter, frost protection, shade etc. for our longer-term plants. We are starting to remove some of our trees now, the foliage is being fed to the stock and the trunks make good firewood. Tree lucerne is a great feed crop for stock, particularly in periods of feed shortage; it will regrow after pruning. It is also a nitrogen fixing plant.
