- I am a unique Australian native, just as happy in large pots and containers as I am planted out in the garden
- I produce masses of red pink flowers in spring and summer
- My long lived blooms attract honey eaters and other small nectar feeding birds
- I do well in most soils but thrive in sandy soils. Hardy I tolerate extremes of temperature
I am a medium sized kangaroo paw, producing a spectacular display of crimson pink flowers with branched stems through spring and summer.
My arched deep green foliage contrasts beautifully with my brightly coloured flowers.
I am long lived as a cut flower to be enjoyed indoors.
I am excellent at attracting small nectar feeding birds to the garden.
I am happiest in a sunny spot but tolerate light shade.
Remove my spent blooms at the base of the stem to maintain my tidy appearance. Once a year removal of older and damaged leaves by simply pulling them away from the plant also improves my tidiness.
