Growing Notes

This grevillea is a moderate sized full shrub that makes a great screen. Sheer 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.
This one tends to have a wide angled stance.
