| Description | Grevillea alpina x rosmarinifolia
Bright orange, scarlet and gold clusters weigh down the ends of the stems of dark green foliage. Spinebills especially love it and it’s a sight to see them hovering at the nectar-rich flowers.
Add to all that a small compact habit that is perfect for containers, mixed beds, borders and edging, and for real drama, mass planting ~ and the boxes are all ticked. Provide full sun or light shade and well drained friable soils, and Grevillea Charlie’s Angel will grow in cool temperate to semi arid climates; light to moderate frost won’t be a problem, and coastal gardens will also suit.

This compact, low, and wide native grevillea produces large conical flowers throughout much of the year, transitioning from soft pink to hot pink. Native birds will adore it just as much as you will! It can serve as a wonderful informal hedge. Once mature, it should withstand a light overnight frost; until then, plant it in a sheltered and prominent location where you can enjoy its beauty and observe the birds feeding joyfully.
