Grevillea 'Silver Eye Cream' attracts birds to its nectar rich flowers

Grevillea ‘Silvereye Cream’

A small shrub growing to around a metre high, it is a wonderful plant for attracting birds to the garden as it flowers all year round. The blooms are lemon and cream and also make great cut flowers. Does best in a sunny position in well drained soil, and with a handful of native fertiliser applied in spring. Good as a low informal hedge, for containers and as a stand alone plant. It is low maintenance and naturally compact.

Note – some grevilleas can cause skin irritation to some people. If you are affected wear protective clothing when handling grevilleas
