Cocktail Kangaroo Paw 140MM

Cocktail ‘Kangaroo Paw’ – 140MM

(Not currently available to be ordered)

I am Celebration Cocktail Kangaroo Paw. My family originated from Western Australia

Botanic Name: Anigozanthos x hybrid ‘KPTAIL’(PBR)

Clumping/Strappy – Perfect for pots

I have a high WOW factor with my unique and stunning blooms a mix of vivid blues, greens, pinks and white borne on compact blue foliage.

I am the result of many years of a careful breeding regime called “recurrent selection”. This means that not only am I stunningly beautiful I have a long flowering season, resistance to extremes of temperature, poor soils and dry conditions.

I have excellent disease resistance and am rarely afflicted by ink-spot and rust which commonly affect many Kangaroo Paw varieties.

My prolific blooms are a magnet for nectar feeding birds such as spine bills and honey eaters.

I am adaptable! I just as happily grow in pots and containers as I do planted in the garden where I make a real statement – particularly when mass planted.

As a cut flower I am long lived in a vase when being enjoyed indoors.
