Black Magic banksia is a stunning native shrub with soft, deep green foliage. Dozens of gleaming gold & black banksia brushes cluster throughout the foliage in winter & spring, and the honeyeaters just love them. A light trimming is all that is needed to keep it tidy, and with more formal clipping, it forms a very attractive hedge.
