A dense compact small shrub that is perfect for rockeries and smaller gardens, whether mass planted for dramatic effect, in small groups or in containers on the patio, veranda or deck. Lovely golden flowers which last well for maximum enjoyment, and are bird attracting. Also can be used for cut flowers. Suits mild acid to alkaline soils, frost tolerant. Banksias are phosphorus sensitive, so a good native fertiliser is best when it comes to feeding time.
