Protea Mayday is a perfect feature plant. Showing off soft grey/green foliage and spectacular pink flowers gently tipped in white, this larger growing protea will make an elegant statement wherever it is used. The showy flowers look impressive in the garden as a feature, mass planting, or a screen. The flowers are equally beautiful in a vase freshly picked, or used as part of a dried flower arrangement. Ensure an Australian native potting mix and fertiliser is used if growing in pots, and select a pot with adequate drainage holes as these plants do not like to be waterlogged.
