Internet Purchases
Plant purchases direct from this website are thriving. It is convenient, saves travelling to ONPN, and can be done 24/7. Here is the response of a recent client:

"Thank you very much. My cordylines arrived today :) I am very impressed with your prompt service and the quality of my new babies.

I will definitely order plants from you in the future.

Thanks again, Courtney"

Herb
Normally Celmisia are alpine plants, but this form is coastal. Full sun, rocky well drained situation. Not always available.

Auckland's rugged West Coast is home to this salt tolerant, drought tolerant species. Regretfully it does not like Auckland's humidity or disturbance of habitat so it is rapidly becoming endangered.
