Banksia petiolaris is a beautiful prostrate banksia with lush green, upright, serrated foliage. Large bright yellow, candle-like flowers appear amongst the foliage from late winter to summer. It is an ideal plant for rockeries, erosion control and covering embankments as it can spread to cover a large area. Fertilise once every 4-6 months with an Australian native fertiliser to promote healthy growth.
