Growing Notes

This grevillea is a full shrub that makes a great screen. Shear it to make the plant extra dense or prune selectively to open it up and make an open airy form. You can also prune off lower branches to expose the trunk in a standard form.
Tolerates a wide range of soil types but best in well-drained soils.
