Leucadendron Inca Gold is a striking upright evergreen shrub prized for its vivid seasonal display - bringing bold, luminous colour to your garden. This densely bushy variety features broad mid-green foliage and strong red-tinted stems that add interest even before flowering begins. In spring, the stems are crowned with wide, tulip-shaped yellow bracts that glow with intensity, their edges delicately brushed in red. As the cooler months arrive, these bracts deepen to a rich, warm gold, making Inca Gold a standout in late winter and early spring landscapes. The medium-length stems are ideal for picking and floral work, offering long-lasting colour both in the garden and the vase. A robust and reliable performer, this shrub maintains a neat, upright form and responds beautifully to pruning. For best results, trim back stems in late spring to encourage dense, fresh growth for the following season.
