Tip prune shoots to keep plant growth dense.

Anigozanthos Landscape Tangerine Kangaroo Paw is a strappy-leafed plant with tall spikes of bright flowers in tones of orange and gold in spring and summer. The flowers attract birds and are long-lasting as cut blooms. It grows from an underground rhizome, so once established, if the leaves suffer blackening from frost or high winds, the plant can be cut back hard to the ground and will reshoot with fresh clean growth. Feed with a good native fertiliser from late winter to spring.

Soil: Well-drained soil.
Conditions: Full sun. Drought, light frost and coastal tolerant.
Size: Height 1-1.8m x width 1.2m
