Grevillea Prostrate Gold is a native groundcover that produces clusters of golden spider flowers upon dark green foliage from late winter through spring.

Prune as desired and fertilise with a long-term slow release fertiliser.

Soil: Well-drained soil.
Conditions: Full sun to part shade. Light frost, drought and coastal tolerant.

Grevillea Knockout is a compact, dwarf native shrub that delivers a long-lasting splash of colour from April through to October. Its clusters of tiny, curled red and yellow flowers sit beautifully against neat, densely packed foliage that emerges apple green before maturing to a deeper green. The fine foliage gives the plant a tidy, rounded appearance, making it perfect for small spaces. Ideal for dry gardens, rockeries and low hedging, Grevillea Knockout is both hardy and low maintenance once established. Prune after flowering to encourage fresh growth and maintain a compact shape. Feed with a slow-release native fertiliser when buds begin to form, ensuring the phosphorus content remains under 3%, as grevilleas can be sensitive to higher phosphorus levels.

Soil: Plant in well-mulched, well-drained soil.
Conditions: Full sun. Frost, coastal and heat tolerant.
Size: Height 1m x width 1m

Grevillea Carpet Layer is a dense, spreading evergreen ground cover valued for its hardy nature and long-lasting floral display. The attractive dark green, serrated foliage forms a thick mat across the soil surface, making it an excellent choice for suppressing weeds and covering large areas with minimal maintenance. From winter through spring and often into summer, it produces masses of soft pink, toothbrush-like flowers that create a vibrant and eye-catching display. These nectar-rich blooms are highly attractive to nectar-feeding birds, adding colour and activity to the garden during the cooler months when flowering plants can be limited.
A light prune after flowering will help maintain a neat appearance and encourage dense, fresh growth. If fertilising, use a low-phosphorus native fertiliser to ensure healthy development.

Soil: Well-drained soil. 
Conditions: Full sun to part shade. Drought, light frost and coastal tolerant.
Size: Height 0.30m x width 2m
