  Banksia spinulosa 'Coastal Cushion'

Banksia ‘Coastal Cushion’ is a useful and low maintenance low growing banksia that flowers its head off from autumn to winter.  It is a naturally dense grower, forming a wide low mound that cover the ground, and a little bit of pruning will see an even more dense habit. It is a vigorous grower. The flowers are golden spikes with lovely contrasting brown stamens, and can be used for cut flowers. It is highly bird attracting. Tolerant of frost and dry spells, and is also great for coastal gardens. Grows in sun to part shade and is adaptable to most soils types. Also good for container growing. Banksias are phosphorus sensitive, so a good native fertiliser is best when it comes to feeding time.
