- I am a unique Australian native plant equally happy planted in a pot or in the garden
- I produce masses of red pink flowers in spring and summer. I am a great cut flower
- My long lived blooms attract honey eaters and other small nectar feeding birds
- I thrive in full sun to part shade and tolerate heat
- Fertilise me regularly and cut back spent flowers to keep me looking at my best
I am a medium sized kangaroo paw, producing a spectacular display of crimson pink flowers with branched stems though 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.
