A spreading medium sized shrub. Very similar to ‘Robyn Gordon’ but has greyish foliage and apricot orange blooms which make good cut flowers. A great feature shrub or screen plant, wonderful to attract nectar feeding birds to the garden. 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
