Grevillea Katherine's Sister - grafted
Katherine's Sister is a stunner, with vibrant red-pink flowers, big and nectar-rich, definitely a bird-magnet for your garden.
She's mostly big and bushy - anything from 1.5m to 2.5m all around, depending on the climate and soil; so don't be afraid to give her a good prune every now and then to encourage the bushiness and new flowering branches.
Note : Our Katherine's Sisters are grafted grevilleas, unlike most of our other varieties. Grafting joins the main plant to another, more robust or adaptable, rootstock. This means it will grow in a wider range of soil types. Read more here
Grevillea 'Orange Wow'
APPEARANCE : Big bushy grevillea with vibrant large red-pink flowers, rich in nectar, which appear intermittently through the year.USE FOR : Feature planting, wildlife gardens, native gardens.
CLIMATE: Tolerates dry periods once established. Needs protection from heavy or prolonged frost
PLANTING: Plant in full sun for maximum flowering. Prefers free draining soil. Note : this is a grafted grevillea, unlike our other varieties. This means it will grow in a wider range of soil types. The tape securing the graft point is biodegradable and should dissolve by the time the graft is complete.
CARE: Water regularly during the first 8-12 weeks until the plant is established. Prune after flowering to promote flowering, dense habit and control growth. A hard prune each year or two will result in a fresh flush of flowers and foliage, and a denser plant. Feed with a slow release native fertiliser when buds form - grevilleas can be phosphorus-sensitive so the P ratio of the fertiliser needs to be under 3%.
HEIGHT & WIDTH: 1.5-2.5m H x 1.5-2.5m 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.
You can see an example in the image gallery.
