Description
"Bush Zest," a cultivar of Kangaroo Paw (Anigozanthos), bursts with bright yellow flowers, bringing year-round sunshine to your garden. Whether placed in the ground or in pots, this perennial herbaceous plant stands out as a cheerful focal point, especially as it's drought-hardy once established. Thriving in full sun and well-drained soil, it benefits from the addition of organic matter if planted in sandy ground conditions.
Pruning "Bush Zest" hard to the ground in early Djeran (Autumn) ensures fresh and lively growth. Fertilising with a native plant fertiliser during Djilba (late Winter to early Spring) and Djeran (Autumn) as directed by the manufacturer contributes to a healthy and robust plant. Its brilliant yellow flowers and low-maintenance needs make "Bush Zest" a joyful and lively addition to any garden space.
