Banksia grandis - bull banksia
Spectacular yellow flower heads and large toothed foliage on a large shrub are the key features of this iconic Western Australian Banksia. It makes a great feature shrub to small tree and is especially good for coastal areas. Growing from 5 to 10 metres tall, some plants can even grow to 15 metres if cinditions are right. It is a very low maintenance plant. Doesn’t like excessive humidity, and prefers a well drained sandy soil. It is slow to flower, but worth growing for the beautiful foliage. Can be container grown. Moderate frost tolerance. Like all banksias, it is phosphorus sensitive, so a good native fertiliser is best when it comes to feeding time.
