Grevillea
Copper
Crest™
A low spreading ground covering plant
(prostrate x 2 - 3m wide) with copper-coloured divided foliage and bronze new growth. Pink toothbrush flowers
bloom most of the year, attractive to honeyeaters, wrens and
thornbills. Reliable in moist clay
loams and sandy soils of neutral to acid pH, and does well in climates ranging from temperate to sub tropical (and semi
arid with additional water). Loves full sun or light shade,
and is hardy to moderate successive frosts. It is
equally suited to inland or coastal gardens.
Uses: Excellent for
covering open areas beneath other shrubs; cascades down walls or banks for dramatic
landscape effect. One of those sturdy and
reliable standbys that no garden should be without.
Maintenance: Shape by
pruning ends of branches following main flowering. Feed in early spring or late summer with low
phosphorus controlled release fertilizer.
