Prune as needed to maintain shape and encourage bushiness.

Ideal for native gardens, feature planting, or general landscaping, Grevillea Amethyst brings a touch of refined beauty and year-round interest to any outdoor space.

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

Its spreading habits make it popular for cascading over banks, pots and hanging baskets.

Soil: Prefers well-drained soil
Conditions: Full sun. Tolerant to most Australian conditions.
