Preferred Soil:

Prefers well-drained soils but will tolerate a range of moisture levels. Thrives best in moist, well-drained conditions

Loved for its stunning, bright red, brush-like flowers that bloom profusely and attract birds and pollinators.

Often noted for its ability to withstand both drought and flood conditions, this is a hardy and versatile plant.

Care Considerations:

Moderate watering needs, drought-tolerant once established. While not required a light feeding with a balanced, low-phosphorus fertiliser during the growing season can be beneficial. Apply organic mulch to help retain moisture and suppress weeds. Prune after flowering to maintain shape and encourage bushiness, remove dead or damaged branches.
