  Banksia meisneri - Scott River banksia

This is a wonderful ornamental species with a delicate appearance, growing to a small shrub with many branches. It has unusual and attractive yellow flowers, occurring from autumn to spring.
Needs a well drained soil and dappled shade or part sun, but will withstand full sun conditions. It is somewhat tolerant of frost and drought once established. Banksias are phosphorus sensitive, so a good native fertiliser is best when it comes to feeding time.
As with most other banksias from Western Australia, it could be difficult to maintain in areas with humid summers.
