Nursery contributed plant descriptions

One of the smallest Grevilleas, this attractive low plant (to about 8” tall and 30” wide) has bright green branches vaguely recalling those of a fir tree, but creeping along the ground and sticking up here and there. Showy pink flowers appear at the branch tips in late spring. An adaptable plant, it makes an excellent subject for a rock garden, but will also thrive in heavier soils. Hardy to at least 15 °F, perhaps lower. Low shrub. Easy, good in containers. 10 °F. Australia.
