Grevillea ‘Aphrodite’s Dream’ – 200MM
(Not currently available to be ordered)
I am Grevillea Aphrodite’s Dream. My family originated from Australia
An upright shrub I flower prolifically all year with pink toothbrush blooms with soft orange tones
are large and showy. I am a native large shrub that is an absolute magnet for nectar feeding birds, bees and beneficial insects for which I am a year round food source. Fast growing with deeply divided large leaves and dense form I am a great wildlife friendly screening option. I respond well to pruning and shaping. Trimming off groups of spent flowers will improve my appearance and encourage even more blooms. I am tough and adaptable performing well in exposed locations. I prefer a well-drained soil and should be fed with a native (low phosphorous) fertiliser. |
