Grevillea Lemon Baby
This low, wide, compact native grevillea will flower almost all year round, in large conical blooms that change from lemon yellow through peach to pink. Native birds will love them as much as you! Makes a great informal hedge.
It should come through an overnight frost once mature; in the meantime plant this in a sheltered pride of place where you can admire it and watch the birds happily feeding.
