The spider flower!

Not because it attracts our many legged friends but the shape of its flower. Flowering up to 7 months of the year in 2 distinct seasons November to February and if grown in a south facing location a second flush in June to August too! With no deadheading required the flowers drop off and are quick to brush away.

Grevillea has needle like foliage similar to a rosemary, and requires a similar growing spot too. Full sun and sheltered from cold winds and free drained soil. Grevillea loves poor soils - neutral to acidic -and does not like to sit in damp soil so incorporate plenty of grit at planting or plant in containers with good drainage holes. A great plant for the infrequent waterer.

To prune simply remove unwanted branches in spring once flowering has finished. but before the second flush of flowers begin.

What This Plant Brings to Your Garden

Holds an RHS award

Marked with the RHS Award of Garden Merit, a sign this Australian evergreen has proved its worth in gardens given the right sheltered spot.

Feeds winter pollinators

The spidery pink and cream flowers open when little else does, offering nectar to bees and insects through the leaner months of the year.

Thrives on poor soil

Content in poor, dry, neutral to acid ground that defeats fussier shrubs, it rewards the infrequent waterer once its roots take hold.

About This Plant

A member of the protea family from Australia, this evergreen spider flower carries fine, needle-like leaves much like rosemary and asks for similar treatment, a warm wall or sheltered corner out of cold winds. The curious clawed flowers open in two flushes, so plants earn attention across a long stretch of the year rather than one brief burst.

Drainage matters more than feeding. Work plenty of grit into the planting hole, or grow it in a container with open compost, since sodden roots are its weak point. Pruning is light work, taking out unwanted branches in spring once the winter flowering has finished and before the second flush begins.
