A spreading groundcover with bronze-red deeply divided foliage. Nectar-rich toothbrush flowers of deep purple-red with pink styles appear throughout the year. The combination of foliage and flower provide safe habitat and feeding for wrens, honeyeaters and other small birds. Good for banks and as a ground cover in large gardens. Also makes a great weeping standard. Feed in spring and summer with a low phosphorus native fertilizer, watering in well afterwards to avoid leaf burn.
Note – some grevilleas can cause skin irritation to some people. If you are affected wear protective clothing when handling grevilleas
