    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    A prostrate groundcover to 12" tall with a wide spreading habit and handsome foliage. The leaves are ovate, deeply lobed and oak-like, and the new growth blushes red during cool months, later turning a rich green. The dark rose-red winter and springtime flowers are held in 3" toothbrush-like clusters. Well-drained soils are recommended, but plants have done well in heavier soils here on the Central Coast. Prefers some shade especially in inland areas. Hardy to 20 °F. New South Wales.

    This spectacular protea kin, prostrate and spreading to 10” tall by 10' wide, does well for us in a super well-drained area of bright light with little or no organic matter added. Like all proteas, no fertilizer please. The saturated red flowers are scattered throughout the year but are concentrated in the winter. Frost hardy to at least 10 °F, USDA zone 8, with very good drainage.
