Why we love this plant!
Why we love this plant!
This Grevillea is exceptionally well-suited to South East Queensland, thriving in well-drained soils from coastal dunes to inland gardens. Its creamy-white, spider-like flowers bloom year-round, attracting nectar-feeding birds such as honeyeaters, as well as native bees. It is drought-tolerant once established, making it a great addition to low-maintenance and wildlife-friendly landscapes.
Care Considerations
Care Considerations
Watering preferences:
- Requires low to moderate watering, becoming drought tolerant once established.
Mulching preferences:
- Applying organic mulch may help retain moisture and suppress weeds.
Fertilising preferences:
- A low-phosphorus native plant fertiliser during the growing season may support healthy growth.
Pruning preferences:
- Light pruning after flowering may help maintain shape and encourage more blooms.
- If cutting into older wood, late autumn is recommended, followed by deep watering.
Good to Know:
- Bird-attracting – frequented by Red Wattlebirds (Anthochaera carunculata) and New Holland Honeyeaters (Phylidonyris novaehollandiae).
- Also supports native bees and butterflies.
- Avoid high-phosphorus fertilisers, as they can be harmful to Grevilleas.
