Grevillea ‘Fireworks’

 

A small shrub, with bright red and yellow flowers and soft bluegreen foliage.   Flowers occur on the ends of short branches from autumn to spring making this a great feature or pot plant. Performs best in a sunny spot, and well drained soil. Naturally compact, regular tip pruning will create an even more dense plant. 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
