A lovely compact grevillea with large bright yellow brush flowers produced all year round that are bird magnets. Grows to around a metre high, and has been bred to suit subtropical climates. Tolerates light frost. Best in a sunny position in well drained soil. Give it a handful of native fertiliser in spring. Naturally compact, it is a great low maintenance variety that can be used for informal hedging, pot culture and as a feature plant. Waterwise.
Note – some grevilleas can cause skin irritation to some people. If you are affected wear protective clothing when handling grevilleas
