Plant description

A spreading medium sized shrub, with large red brush type flowers for most of the year. Very similar to 'Robyn Gordon', with the same bird attracting and adaptable habit, but has greyish foliage with broader lobes. A great feature shrub or screen plant, growing to around a metre high and wide. Low maintenance. Trimming after flowering will help to encourage a dense habit.
