Spider-Net Grevillea (Grevillea thelemanniana)

This West Australian native is grown for its unusually formed and brightly colored flowers. Dwarf in stature, its thin needle-like leaves and bushy habit make it ideal for pot culture. Clusters of orange-red blooms form on the tips of the new growth in the high light of long summer days. We recommend occasional pruning and periodic trimming to maintain a full dense specimen. Grow in acidic soil such as a peat and perlite mixture, and avoid excessive phosphorus fertilizer. Give full sun for maximum flowering.
