Plant description

grevillea moonlight 001

grevillea moonlight 002

Grevillea Moonlight is one of  the best grevilleas due to the fact that it is tough and adaptable and also flowers all year round. It is great as a feature plant due to its flower power but also makes an effective informal screen and is also a great cut flower and bird attractor. The flowers are produced in groups at the ends of the branches, so as each group of flowers finishes it is best to trim off that whole shoot behind the spent flower heads. A fantastic grevillea choice especially for warmer climates.
