Grevillea

Description

Get ready to fall in love with Grevillea 'Poorinda Queen'! This gorgeous shrub is perfect for adding a pop of colour to your garden, growing up to 4m tall and featuring beautiful dark green foliage. But what really gets us excited is its stunning apricot-pink flowers - they're long-lasting and bloom from winter to summer. These lovely blooms are also a bird's best friend, attracting great numbers of birds and butterflies! To keep your 'Poorinda Queen' happy, simply give it a good feed with native fertilizer in spring and summer. Make sure the soil is well watered after feeding, but not too much - we don't want leaf burn! Just a few extra tips: some people may experience skin irritation when handling grevilleas (so keep those gloves handy!), and be on the lookout for its fast growth rate.
