Flashy large dark dusky-red brush flowers throughout most of the year, above a medium sized shrub to 1.5m. Foliage is deeply dissected and slightly less stiff compared to Ned Kelly.
Classic well-known variety, good all-rounder for native and mixed Australian gardens anywhere but the tropical north and snowfields. Great value garden plant - and a favourite of our local honeyeaters. as you can see in the gallery
Grevillea bipinnatifida x banksii 'Robyn Gordon'
APPEARANCE : Dusky dark red flowers, large in size, appear throughout most of the year, flowering more heavily in late winter and spring. Native shrub with dense toothed foliage.
USE FOR: Loved by honey eaters, flocking to feed on the flowers at dusk and dawn. Ideal for use as a screening or feature plant. Very long flowering period.
CLIMATE: Will grow in most areas of Australia, except for the tropics and snowfields. Hard frosts may burn soft new growth but light frosts will not damage the plant.
PLANTING: Well drained clay loams or sandy soil with a neutral to acid pH. Frost hardy and requires little water once established. Prefers a full sun to part shade position.
CARE: Water during the first 8-12 weeks until the plant is established. Light pruning after flowering will promote flowering and dense growth. 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 m H x 1.5 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.
You can see an example in the image gallery.
