Description
"Pink Pearl" Grevillea, a cultivar of Grevillea rosmarinifolia x juniperina, graces gardens with its striking pinkish-red flowers from Makuru (winter) to Kambarang (late spring). This medium shrub, native to Australia, boasts solid upright branches, presenting a strong visual structure to gardens. A magnet for native birds, it doesn't just add a splash of colour, but also a chorus of song to any outdoor space.
When planting "Pink Pearl", the ground is its preferred home, and those with sandy soils should consider adding a soil conditioner for optimal growth. It appreciates a dose of low-phosphorus native fertiliser during Djilba (early spring). As this Grevillea matures, it reveals its drought-hardy nature, making it an enduring choice for gardens in varying conditions.
