- I am a unique Australian native, just as happy in large pots and containers as I am planted out in the garden
- I produce bright yellow with red tinges velvety flowers in spring, summer and autumn. I am a great cut flower
- My long lived blooms attract honey eaters and other small nectar feeding birds
- I thrive in full sun and tolerate light shade
- Fertilise me regularly and cut back spent flowers to keep me looking at my best
I am a delightful smaller kangaroo paw hybrid with red flower stems with bright yellow medium sized flowers.
Unique to Australia I have evolved to be pollinated by small birds for which I am a magnet. My blooms are similar in shape to a kangaroos paw and give the visiting birds a face full of pollen while they retrieve their nectar reward from deep inside my bloom when performing their pollination duties.
I enjoy a sunny location and free draining, sandy soils but perform well in most soils.
I am just as happy as a container plant as I am planted out in the garden.
I will benefit from an annual application of a quality slow release fertiliser.
When mass planted I create stunning impact.
My blooms are long lived and I make a great cut flower.
