Let us choose the perfect gift for the lazy gardener!

Want to take the worry out of 'what to buy Auntie Kath' in 2011? Then think about a LIVING GIFT which is quite simply, a prepared bag-rooting frangipani branch, posted by me, on your behalf, to anywhere in Australia, with a card attached, saying the gift is from you. This living gift will also include a little gold bag of fresh frangipani seeds, for your recipient to grow for themselves. Prices start from $35 all up, within Western Australia, and about $10 more outside WA. I don't sell or even bother growing any boring or ordinary cultivars, so whatever you get will be special!!

This glorious new cultivar has just been named after the new-born son of some hardworking members of the Frangipani Society of Australia. Are you looking for a special gift for the family of a new-born baby, in celebration of their birth? What better than a brand new frangipani cultivar, also 'born and bred' in Australia?! For years I always gave a plant to celebrate the birth of a new baby. Now I always give young frangipani trees. They are much more robust, and will grow with the child. They are very easy to transplant, even really big trees, in case you didn't know.

My friend and fellow FSA member Michelle wrote a short, easy-to-follow article for "Frangipani Facts" - our society's quarterly journal. I have her permission to share it with the general public, so please feel free to click on the link above, to try bag-rooting for yourself.

You can write your own message, scan and email it, so I can include it with your parcel, on Coral Coast Frangipani Farm's special gift cards if you like. This extra service costs $5 ~ to cover my time and cost of stationery only) Otherwise, you can email your message to me, and I will print off your email on some pretty frangipani paper for free!!

This glorious new cultivar, from an A-series seed, from Dr Preecha, in Thailand, I hope to register as a living memory of my Liam, my first, lovely Irish Wolfhound. This tree now grows over his grave. It may be that you, or a friend or member of your family has recently lost a treasured mate. Consider using our Living Gift service to celebrate their life, by having something as nice as a frangipani, growing over their grave, for years to come.

If you are especially 'into' frangipani fragrances, or know someone who is, consider our special 'perfumes only' package, which will contain the glorious Singapore Evergreen, acknowledged as the world's favourite frangipani, plus two more highly-fragrant new rubra cultivars. Remember these cannot be sourced anywhere else yet, because they are my own home-grown special favourites. Your box will be the triangular shaped one shown on the freight page, and comes via Australia Post. Total cost all up, including postage and packing, is only $100 for anywhere in Australia this month. I will endeavour to send you my largest branches, within the confines of this box, so you should get your first flowers next spring, even if you live in the cooler states.
