Plants We Sell in Rosebud, Australia:
We grow a wide variety of succulents from our suburban block on the Mornington Peninsula, and sell to locals from our roadside stall.
Visit the stall at 40 Murawa Drive, Rosebud, 3939.
While we specialize in succulents we also stock other drought tolerant plants - Dogbane, Society Garlic and Dymondia. Dogbane is believed to deter dogs (we have it planted around our letterbox), and Society Garlic is believed to deter snakes! A customer told us that she uses Society Garlic around her roses to keep aphids at bay. Dymondia is a thick, slow-growing ground cover which is great to grow around pavers, and will suppress weeds.
Please note that availability changes every week depending on stock numbers. See our Facebook Marketplace listing below to see current stock or email katie[at]steppingstonesgardens.com for more information.
