Plant description

Anigozanthos 'Bush Pizazz' is a strappy leaf perennial plant with masses of magenta pink flowers and a dwarf habit. One of the better garden performers amongst the dwarf kangaroo paws. A good feature plant, and great for container growing. Likes a sunny position and a well drained soil. Once the flowering has finished, cut back the stems to ground level to rejuvenate the plant.
