Almost every gardener we know loves native Banksias, but the shrub kinds can get to large proportions that soon outgrow the average suburban garden.

Ozbreed's NEW Narrow Nugget™ slips into the smallest of spaces, at well under head high and less than a metre across full-grown. Which means you and the local birds can enjoy those golden flowers throughout the year, however small your outdoor spot!

Description

Banksia spinulosa BAS03 PBR intended 'Narrow Nugget'™

APPEARANCE : Australian native shrub with a compact slender outline, growing to less then a metre wide. Cylindrical golden-yellow flowers appear in autumn and winter, proud of the foliage. Ozbreed variety
USE FOR : Coastal gardens, wildlife gardens, slender hedging, feature plant, and in pots and containers.
PLANTING : Plant in a light very-well-drained soil in a sunny position for best flowering. Suits acid to mildly alkaline soils and is able to tolerate frost and salt spray. Low water needs once established - doesn't like wet feet or humidity.
CARE : Prune every few years if needed, to maintain dense growth and fit to space. 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 very alkaline soils, but plants are happy grown in pots if this is the case in your garden.
HEIGHT & WIDTH : 1-1.5m H x 0.5-0.75m W
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.
