Birthday Candles Banksia is a vigorous, evergreen dwarf shrub with needle-type foliage and bright golden flower spikes in autumn and winter.
As with most banksias, they attract birds to the garden and are splendid when in flower as this variety is so prolific. Plant Birthday Candles in coastal gardens, wildlife gardens, rockeries, mass groundcover plantings, and in pots and containers. Prune as required after flowering to maintain dense growth. Feed with a slow-release native fertiliser during spring
Soil: Plant in a light very-well-drained soil
Conditions: Sunny position. Frost and coastal tolerant.
Size: Height 0.40m x width 0.5-1m
