Or find us on FACEBOOK

COMMON NAME
Stonecrop, 'Japanese gold'

ORIGIN
Sedum makinoi is native to Asia.

DESCRIPTION
Sedum makinoi is a low-growing succulent with lean, creeping stems and opposite, fleshy, green leaves. It can grow 10 cm tall. The leaves are flat and rounded, measuring up to 1.5 cm long and 1 cm wide.

The flowers are yellow and star-shaped and appear in mid-summer.

Sedum is easily planted. Laying the plant on the ground where you will grow is usually enough to start the plant there. They will send out roots from wherever the stem touches the ground and root it self. A good idea is to add a very thin soil covering over the plant.

Lotus berthelotii

AVAILABLE AT ROOTS & ROSES Napier Village Nursery
FOLLOW US ON INSTAGRAM
Or find us on FACEBOOK

COMMON NAMES
Parrot's beak, pelican beak, and coral gem

This plant is widely cultivated but is either extinct in the wild or persists as a few individuals. In 1884 it was already classed as "exceedingly rare" and plant collection probably hastened its decline.

ORIGIN
Canary and Cape Verde Islands in the Atlantic Ocean

Lotus berthelotii grow best in a sunny position in moderately fertile but extremely well drained soil. Ideal for planting in hanging baskets, cascading over walls or scrambling amongst rocks on a bank. It does not enjoy long periods of rainfall, high summer humidity and severe winter frost.

POLLINATION
The flowers of Lotus berthelotii and some other Canary Island species appear to be adapted for bird pollination. It was once thought that the original pollinators of these plants were sunbirds which had become extinct on the Canary Islands, explaining why they are rare and considered endangered species. However more recent work has shown that these plants are adequately pollinated by non-specialist flower visiting birds, particularly the Canary Islands chiffchaff (Phylloscopus canariensis).
