Bush Diamond™ Kangaroo Paw 140MM

Anigozanthos hybrid 'Rambodiam' (Bush Diamond™) PBR

I am Bush Diamond™ Kangaroo Paw. My family originated from South Western Australia.

Habit Strappy - Bird Attracting

Plant family Haemodoraceae

I am a smaller growing kangaroo paw, unique with prolific stunning white blooms tinged with hot pink. My flowers are borne in clusters on upright stems above slender, strap-like foliage. 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 kangaroo's 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 free draining and 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. My blooms are long lived and I make a great cut flower.

I am popular and will make you happy because...

I produce masses of white velvety flowers tinged with pink from late winter to autumn. I am a great cut flower

I am a unique Australian native plant equally happy planted in a pot or in the garden

My long lived blooms attract honey eaters and other small nectar feeding birds
