Grevillea 'Superb'
DESCRIPTION: Vibrant orange-apricot flowers throughout most the year, flowering more heavily in late winter and spring. Beautiful shrub with dense foliage. It is frost hardy and requires little water once established. Prefers a full sun to part shade position.
USE IN: Grevilleas are loved by honey eaters, flocking to feed on the flowers at dusk and dawn. Ideal for use as a screening or feature plant .This grevillea will grow in most areas of Australia, except for the tropics.
LOCATION: Well drained clay loams or sandy soil with a neutral to acid pH. Grevilleas can tolerate dry spells, suitable for reasonably cold temperatures and sub tropical climates.
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: 1-2m around
YOUR PLANTS: These are tubestock plants, healthy young plants with new roots that will establish quickly in your garden. The pot size is 80 mm x 42 mm wide.
