The lovely soft pink large flower heads on a compact shrubby growth habit are the outstanding features of this spectacular grevillea. It makes a great bird attracting feature plant for the garden that can also be used to supply short-lived cut flowers for the house. Give it a trim after its main flush of flowers in late winter and early spring and feed a with low phospohorus native fertilizer in spring and summer, watering in well afterwards.
Note – some grevilleas can cause skin irritation to some people. If you are affected wear protective clothing when handling grevilleas
