HI,

has anyone had much experience with the oyster plant?? (Acanthus)
I wanted to plant some adjacent to our back verandah - faces East and gets
shade from about11-12 onwards.
It can get a bit dry, depending on the weather but we are able to water from
the tanks we put in b4 the rains came.

Does this plant spread and become a problem? any terrible pests apart from
snails? will a garden bed 60cm wide be
big enough?

was wanting to interplant with other things for some variation - got any
suggestions here??

we're in Hawkesbury area of Sydney ??? zone 6 ?? gets v. hot and vv.cold

cheers all
