Plant description

A great feature shrub for general garden beds or rockeries. Also suitable for a large container and is a great cut flower. Waratahs naturally grow in sandy soil, but can be successfully grown in other soil types provided they are deep and well drained. Prune after flowering to invigorate the plant.
