The variety everyone has been asking us to add to the range! Peaches and Cream is easily distinguished from its similar sibling grevilleas Superb, Loopy Lou, Coconut Ice as the colouring is much brighter, more acid in tone; the yellow flower tips are sharp lime-lemon, not soft butter, and take up most of the large flowerhead.

It's a bold shrub, tolerant of most garden growing conditions, and vibrant in full flower, which is most of the year in a mild climate.
