Description

Grevillea lanigera 'Mt Tamboritha'

APPEARANCE : Spreading ground cover with small oblong foliage covered in fine silvery down. Showy clusters of small pink and cream flowers appear from late winter to spring.
ORIGIN : G lanigera occurs throughout southern NSW and VIC in a range of habitats
USE FOR : Rockeries, coastal gardens, embankments. Ideal size for container gardens. Bird attracting native. Winter colour
CLIMATE: Tolerates dry periods once established. Frost tolerant. Happier in dry climates than humid ones.
PLANTING : Plant in well drained soil in full sun to part shade. Avoid wet mulch as the leaves resting above it may brown, using a dry mulch such as pebbles or chunky bark will help to avoid this in humid climates.
CARE : Mulch and water regularly until the plant is established, usually around 12 weeks. 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 : 0.4 m H x 1 - 2 m 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.
