Grevillea lanigera

Grevillea lanigera Details

Grevillea lanigera is a low growing, evergreen shrub featuring showy clusters of colourful flowers. The unusual flowers are pink, crimson and cream and produced amidst the foliage from spring through summer. The foliage comprises fine, mid-green leaves held densely on prostrate stems. It typically grows to 30 cm tall and 1.5 m wide, performing best when planted in full sun or partial shade on a well-drained site. It is tolerant of dry periods, coastal conditions, and moderate frost. Grevillea lanigera is commonly used as a groundcover, added to coastal gardens, or planted to attract birds. This bright and cheerful plant also suits being grown in a container, planted around the base of larger trees and shrubs, or mass planted on a bank or the like.
