Banksia petiolaris

2200

$22.00

Banksia petiolaris is a striking prostrate banksia prized for its lush green, upright, serrated foliage and impressive golden blooms. Unlike many upright banksias, this variety forms a low-growing, spreading habit that hugs the ground while sending up its large, bright yellow, candle-like flower spikes above the foliage from late winter through to summer. Its spreading nature makes it an excellent choice for rockeries, erosion control, and covering embankments, where it can gradually form a dense, weed-suppressing groundcover over a wide area. The bold flowers not only create a dramatic display but also attract birds and pollinators to the garden. With minimal maintenance and high visual impact, Banksia petiolaris is a superb addition to Australian native landscapes.

Soil: Well-drained soil
Conditions: Full sun to part shade. Tolerates frost, short wet periods and extended dry spells.
Size: Height 0.5m x width 4m

Banksia serrata

2400

From $24.00

Banksia serrata, or Saw or Old Man Banksia, is a character-filled small to medium-sized tree with leathery serrated leaves and large, creamy yellow to brown flowers in summer. The flowers are followed by interesting pods, and the bark is quite lumpy - both of which helped inspire May Gibbs' Big Bad Banksia man. The plant can vary in size depending on the soil and its exposure. Banksia serrata attracts nectar-loving birds and other wildlife to the garden, and black cockatoos like feeding on the developing cones.

Soil: Prefers a deep sandy soil that is moderately fertile with a pH range of 5.5 to 7.0
Conditions: Full sun to semi-shade. It is drought, salt and frost tolerant and fire-resistant.
Size: Height 3-15m x width 2-4m
