Fraxinus griffithii ‘FRAX01’ Safe Haven™ PBR is a standout-plant for allergy-sensitive landscapes, offering a non-invasive, seedless option that adds beauty and elegance. Even though it displays abundant, long-flowering golden-yellow blooms, it doesn’t seem to produce enough pollen to cause issues for people with allergies. With its evergreen, vibrant lime green foliage and non-bee-attracting blooms, Safe Haven™ is an ideal choice as a hedge or grown as a stately tree, making it perfect for screening, windbreaks, or as a feature tree. Safe Haven requires pruning 1-3 times a year to maintain a tidy shape and can be pruned to a minimum of 1.6 metres.

Showing off soft grey/green foliage and spectacular pink flowers gently tipped in white, this larger growing protea will make an elegant statement wherever it is used.
