Grevillea Coconut Ice

The Grevillea Coconut Ice shows off beautiful dark-red and pink flowers.

Water: Remember that Grevillea's don't like wet feet so dry conditions and long periods without rain will not trouble them. Just a good water once a week when they are established will be sufficient.

Sun: All grevilleas are sun-lovers so plant in a position with full sun. They will survive in a partly shady spot but your plant may become leggy and won't develop as many flowers.

Soil: If you're planting directly into the garden, mix in some low-phosphorus fertiliser such as blood and bone, or if you're planting in a pot, make sure you use a premium quality potting mix designed specifically for growing natives.
