    Zn 8. Mounding compact shrub. Red flowers

    By: Little Prince of Oregon

    An upright shrub to 6' tall and nearly as wide, the rosemary grevillea bears (surprise!) rosemary-like foliage and rose-colored, pendant flowers. A generous bloomer in fall and winter, it will continue to please birds and gardeners alike with scattered blossoms throughout the year. Tolerant of difficult conditions such as poor soils, heat and drought, it will also respond well to shearing making it useful as a clipped hedge. Hardy to 18F. New South Wales, Victoria.
