Since I'm relatively new to Aussie natives (being a US ex-pat), I have decided to experiment and have a native only bed under the Callistamon tree in our front garden. The bed is coming up to a year now. I've lost a Darwinia citriodora, Banksia 'Birthday Candles', two Leptospermums, and one Crowea.

What has thrived: Myoporums, Eremophilias, Correas, Kennedia prostrata, Prostantheras, Goodenia, Alyogynes (can't recommend those enough!!).

Yes, I have alkaline soil!!!

I need to shift an Olearia and one of the Prostantheras. Anyone know if they are ok with that and if so, when is the best time to move them??
