Grevillea Rosy’s Baby™ PBR 
 

Grevillea Rosy’s Baby™ PBR

Introducing the first generation from the ever-popular Rosy Posy™.

A small shrub (80cm -1m x 60 - 80cm), with an upright to lightly spreading habit; soft grey-green leaves with striking bronze new growth, and showy bunches of waxy pink and cream flowers hanging like lanterns along the stems from winter to early summer. the massed flowers are especially attractive to honeyeaters, and it is a delight to watch Spinebills hanging upside down as they probe each flower for its nectar.  Rosy's Baby loves full sun or light shade, in moist well drained clay or sandy loams, neutral to acid pH; and is suitable for cool temperate to sub tropical or semi arid climates.  Frost hardy, it is an ideal choice for both inland and near coastal gardens.

Uses:  Create a charming hedge or use as a border plant, or grow amongst other bird habitat plantings. And it is especially stunning when grown in a tub and placed on a deck, patio or in a courtyard, so the visiting honeyeaters can be seen up close and personal.  Flora for Fauna at its best.

Maintenance:  Trim after flowering; feed with low phosphorus controlled release fertilizer in early spring or late summer.  If grown in a container, use best quality free-draining potting medium and do not over water.

Flora for Fauna? You bet!

Bring honeyeaters up close and personal into your life by planting containers with this spectacular new Grevillea. They love it.
