When you think of a bit of the Mediterranean in your garden, you usually think of rosemary, lavender and maybe a fig. But those who dare to go a step further choose oleander – a plant with the looks of a Greek goddess and the personality of a rock star on a bad day. With delicate flowers in shades of pink, white, red and even apricot, and leaves that resemble laurel, oleander is more than just a decoration – it’s a statement. And a bold one at that. How to grow an oleander tree?

How to grow a citrus tree from seed: homegrown lemons, tangerines and oranges for patient (and a little romantic) gardeners https://citymagazine.si/en/how-to-grow-a-citrus-tree-from-seeds-homemade-lemon-tangerine-and-orange-for-patient-and-a-little-romantic-gardeners/ Wed, 04 Jun 2025 08:53:32 +0000 https://citymagazine.si/en/?p=640927

Citrus fruits are not only a sweet and sour explosion of vitamins that wakes you up more than a triple espresso, but they are also the stars of every garden or urban balcony. While most people swear by proven seedlings from nurseries, true enthusiasts know that growing a citrus tree from seed is a special experience – like meditation with a long-term goal. Fear not: you don't need a laboratory, just some patience, warmth and regular spraying (not nerves – with water).

How to grow bougainvillea that will bloom until late autumn: a Mediterranean diva that all the neighbors will admire https://citymagazine.si/en/how-to-grow-bougainvillea-that-will-bloom-until-late-autumn-a-mediterranean-diva-that-all-the-neighbors-will-admire/ Wed, 14 May 2025 08:57:32 +0000 https://citymagazine.si/en/?p=636637

Bougainvillea is a plant that rewards perseverance. It is not one of those that we nurture with tenderness and excessive care - quite the opposite. If we want to bring out its most spectacular appearance from it, we must set boundaries for it, deliberately "provoke" it and offer it strict but thoughtful care.

Tree of 40 fruits: a tree that grows as many as 40 kinds of fruit! https://citymagazine.si/en/tree-of-40-fruits-a-tree-on-which-grows-as-much-as-40-kinds-of-fruit/ Thu, 30 Jul 2015 06:53:26 +0000 http://citymagazine.si/?post_type=video&p=175581

A tree that grows as many as 40 types of fruit is not some magical tree from a fairy tale or fantasy movie. The 40s fruit tree grows in the United States, and its creator is artist and professor at Syracuse University Sam Van Aken. These trees are grafted with as many as 40 different types of stone fruit, so that you can harvest apricots, plums, cherries, peaches, nectarines, almonds and other fruits in the crown of a single tree. A kind of Noah's ark for fruit, you could say.

Did you know that a bunch of bananas is actually a flower and that pineapples don't grow on trees? No? I thought it was. Sometimes sentences that start with "Did you know..." literally kick our ass. It is no different when it comes to some everyday food, and its ubiquity alone is to blame for us thinking we know everything about it. Actually, we have no idea!

We used to need an entire orchard to get a crate of fruit, but apparently soon it will only take one tree. Sam Van Aken, an American sculptor, developed the Tree of 40 fruit, a tree that bears as many as 40 types of fruit.
