South Australia Region
Highly ornamental but hardy native foliage plants that attract nectar eating birds and insects. Plant the compact grevilleas singly for contrast or grouped as an informal hedge or barrier up to 1m in height depending on variety. Grevilleas need full sun and well-drained soil to thrive and respond to heavy pruning to create dense growth. They require only minimal supplementary water over summer and a tolerate moderate frosts. Grevilleas are sensitive to phosphorus and require native fertiliser. Popular cultivars include 'Robyn Gordon', 'Winparra Gem' and 'Superb'.
