Botanic Name: Leucadendron salignum ‘Strawberries & Cream’

Bushy – Bright Year Round Colour

I am a showy Leucadendron with showy strawberry red foliage and cream coloured bracts around my flowers which are prolific appearing in winter and spring.

I am particularly hardy and drought tolerant once established.

I appreciate free draining neutral to acidic soils and am not suited to limey or alkaline soils or boggy conditions.

I will perform at my best in full sun and tolerate shade.

A light prune and or dead heading after flowering will improve my shape and more blooms in the next flowering season.
