Hardy Exotic Plants
Field trials in Drenthe since 2005
Albizia coreana
This is one of THE showstoppers in our garden.
This plant is very rare in cultivation and is threatened with extinction in the wild.
Callistemon pityoides
Very few Callistemon species are hardy, but Callistemon pityoides has been hardy in our garden for over 10 years without any protection.
Lagerstroemia tuskogee
Lagerstroemia is planted far too rarely in the Netherlands. Yet it is hardy, blooms for over a month at times, and comes in many varieties of different colors
Albizia julibrissin 'Boubri'
It all started with Albizia julibrissin ‘Boubri’. This Albizia has been in our garden since 2006 and is fully hardy. If you’re looking for a tropical-looking tree that’s fully hardy, go for Albizia julibrissin ‘Boubri’.
