Adenanthos cunninghamii 'Lighthouse'
A sculptural cultivar of Adenanthos, this plant has a tall and dense form resembling a pillar. Grown primarily for its silvery, soft smooth foliage, it also produces small red flowers in spring which attract birds with their nectar. Growing to around 1.5 metres high and a metre wide, it can be used for screens, informal hedges, native gardens, but also for large scale landscape projects. It also looks good in containers. Suitable for coastal gardens. Tolerates light frost and dry spells well. Light pruning after flowering will encourage strong new growth.
