## Things that have done well:
* Mypoporum - groundcovers are very vigorous and the surrounding plants seem to benefit from it. There's even a climber-ish form and a tree too, I'll have to get the scientific names. All cuttings seem to take pretty easily. They're all doing okay-ish in our garden, except the groundcovers seemed to suffer in summer when they didn't have any shade from the sun. We put a climber one in a self-watering pot, I think that wasn't such a good idea on hindsight.
* Grevillea olivacea - fast-growing, dense tall shrub, great as screening plant. Looks beautiful too. Of all the natoves in our garden, it's probably one of the hardiest.
# Not so well:
* Banksias - very susceptible to root rot. I recently bought one that grows in swampy soil and put him in a pot, he seems to be pretty okay. Apart from the fact that he grows up to 12m.
* Boronias - seems like gardeners have quite some trouble with these ones. We have two aniseed boronias that seem to do pretty okay. We also had a chocolate one that thrived for a bit, then suddenly died, I reckon it was root rot. Scale insects have also attacked the aniseed boronias. I don't have much hope for them.
## Trees
Silver princess (Simone), Hakea laurina (Larry), Coral gum (Corey) -
We'd got them all as tubestock and it's been a joy watching them grow up. Simone especially, when she was younger her leaves were round and the new growth was bright red, it was stunning. Corey's been attacked by some fungus and some kind of mites, we've thinned him out a bit and put some fungicide on him. Fingers crossed.
