For care instructions, features and more, check out Additional Information below | Abelia grandiflora nana
Grandiflora Nana is a compact, low growing shrub with bold bronze-red new leaves becoming glossy green as it matures. Features gorgeous clusters of soft mauve flowers throughout most of the year. Suited to small gardens, containers and rambling cottage gardens. Attracts butterflies. Once established it is fairly drought tolerant. Frost tolerant.
Thrives when planted in a position of full sunlight.
A dwarf tree is just like its normal counterpart, except that it has been grafted onto a special rootstock that causes it to remain compact. The innovation of dwarf trees allows you to grow the variety in small spaces, or grow several different varieties where you may only have room for one normal tree.
8"/20cm pot size. | Doryanthes excelsa 'Gymea Lily'
The Doryanthes Excelsa's leaves grow upto 2-2.5m. The straight flowering stalk grows upto 6-8m and bears a large cluster of bright red flowers, each 10 centimetres across.
The larger variety, the Doryanthes Palmeri, grows leaves that reach 3m, hence the name Giant Spear Lily. Its stalk grows upto 5m and droops rather than standing upright due to the weight of the flowers.
Doryanthes Excelsa flowers in spring but can take over 13 years to flower. Flowering can be brought on by bushfires, which also promotes the sprouting of root bulbs
