Some Vireya planting ideas.

Just a few planting ideas from our Nursery display garden. In nature Vireya Rhododendrons very often grow as epiphytes in the clefts of rocks and trees. They have a very fine root system that requires excellent drainage to grow well. Because of this, they make ideal specimen plants to grow in baskets and containers. They love morning sun or bright filtered light. Requiring some protection from frost and during Summer from hot afternoon sun. We have Vireya "Just Peachy" growing in a short length of terracotta pipe together with some mini Mondo grass. Vireya "Lochmin" is growing quite happily in the hollowed out log, perhaps mirroring something of the epiphytic nature of the genus. Vireya "Coral Flare" has a spreading habit and makes an ideal specimen for a hanging basket, it's happy growing in bright filtered light hanging from a lillypilly tree. Vireya loranthiflorum is a species Vireya growing in a large pot together with a fig tree. Ajuga reptans growing in the pot makes an ideal companion plant.

Supporting Widows and Orphans.

Hoyas for Africa is the name we have given to a small fund raising effort we run to support Widows and orphans in Entebbe Uganda. In 2006 a Brisbane couple purchased 5 acres of land in Entebbe with proceeds from Australian donations. In association with a local Church, a programme was begun to enable widows from the area to grow and harvest crops on the land. As a result many of the poor have food on their tables and can even sell some of their produce to earn money for medicine and clothes. At the same time a sponsership progamme to provide school fees was established to help the orphans receive an education.

The main part of our support comes from profits on garden plants and other sundry items that we sell through a small nursery attatched to our Giftware business in inner city Brisbane. It is not our prime intention with this Blog to solicit donations for this project although some people have, and should anyone feel so inclined we would be happy to pass on information please contact hoyasforafrica@gmail.com
