This ripper native is made for easygoing Aussie gardens. It hugs the ground and spills over walls or garden edges with lush green foliage, then bursts into golden-yellow blooms through autumn to winter.

Birds and bees can’t get enough of it. Tough as nails, drought-hardy and low-fuss - just plant it in a sunny spot and let it do its thing.

Description

Banksia integrifolia prostrata 'Roller Coaster'

APPEARANCE : This Aussie native sprawls across the ground like a natural high pile green carpet, dotted with bright cylindrical golden-yellow flowers and leaves that shimmer silvery-white underneath.
PLANTING: Plant in well-drained light soil in a sunny position for best flowering season. Is able to tolerate light frost and salt spray.
CARE: Prune as required after flowering to maintain dense growth. Feed with a slow release native fertiliser during spring - Banksia are phosphorus-sensitive so the P ratio of the fertiliser needs to be under 3%. Leaves may yellow in alkaline soils, but plants are happy grown in pots of native-mix soil.
HEIGHT & WIDTH: 30-50cm H x 1-2m W. Plants are frequently smaller in cool climates and exposed sites.
YOUR PLANTS : These are tubestock plants, healthy young plants with new roots that will establish quickly in your garden. The pot size is 80mm high and 42 mm wide.
You can see an example in the image gallery.
