Boronia crenulata is a compact, evergreen shrub prized for its neat green foliage and delicate pink, four-petalled flowers in spring to early summer. For Irish gardens it does best in light shade with protection from cold winds, planted in acidic, moist but free-draining soil and kept evenly watered (avoid both drought and waterlogging). In most areas it is safest grown in a container so it can be moved to a cool, bright, frost-free place during cold spells; avoid lime and harsh midday sun.
To help give a clear sense of scale, the stone wall shown in our photos measures approximately 265cm in height. We also use familiar garden tools as visual references: a digging fork (110cm tall) and a hand fork (30cm tall). These are included purely as size guides to help you better judge proportions when viewing the images.
