I read your article about “ground cover” at https://www.burkesbackyard.com.au/fact-sheets/in-the-garden/grasses-ground-covers-lawns/ground-covers/
I wnat to buy seeds of Grevillea’Grassfire’ and Gardenia augusta’Radicans’.(cover a bit large land, so I don’t want to buy plant in pot)
You are appretiated if you can tell me where I can buy these seeds.
Thanks
Bingyang
Answer:
Hi Bingyang, Neither plant is available as seed. Grevillea ‘Grassfire’ is not suited to Brisbane’s climate. Gardenia ‘Radicans’ is readily available from nurseries as a pot plant. Don
