Grevillea Tangerine™ PBR

A low spreading dense shrub (30 - 60cm x 1 - 1.5m) bearing masses of bird attracting (both honeyeaters and parrots) tangerine flowers most of the year, especially late autumn to summer. Hardy in a range of climates from temperate to sub tropical and semi arid. Grows well in full sun or light shade, in either well drained clay loams or sandy soils, neutral to acid pH.  Very frost hardy, and suited to both inland and coastal gardens.

Uses: mass plantings on broad areas and slopes, or as a colourful mix with Canterbury Gold, offering a permanent feast for nectar-seeking birds and insects.

Maintenance: prune to shape as required. Feed in early spring or late summer with low phosphorus
controlled release fertilizer.

Flower bunches constantly attract honeyeaters and rosellas.

A handsome spreading plant with dense foliage, and flowering from autumn to early summer.

Tangerine is amazing. Plant it, leave it alone but for an occasional prune, and the rewards are a non-stop flush of vivid flowers which attract honeyeaters and rosellas and wrens all day long.
