Description

Hummingbirds, birds and bees cannot resist the nectar-filled flowers of this stunning evergreen shrub that is covered in 5-inch panicles of coral, pink and yellow blooms year-round in frost free areas. It prefers a neutral to acidic soil and thrives in well-drained soil that is low in phosphorous. The foliage has a beautiful textual quality. Light pruning encourages more blooms at the ends of each branch. This magnificent plant is a hybrid cross of G. banksii and G. bipinnatifida.
