Its mid-green, divided foliage provides a fine texture year-round, and its adaptability to a wide range of soils makes it one of the most reliable grevilleas for SA gardens. An excellent choice for habitat gardens, informal screens, and low-maintenance border planting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMature Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.5–2.5 m H x 2–3 m W\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth Rate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fast; 40–70 cm per year; spreading and bushy with a naturally dense habit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFoliage:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mid-green, divided (pinnate) leaves with fine texture; silvery undersides\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlowers:\u003c\/strong\u003e Orange-red toothbrush clusters; flowers heavily winter–spring with repeat flushes through summer and autumn; non-fragrant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeasonal Interest:\u003c\/strong\u003e Near year-round flowering; most prolific in winter and spring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWildlife Value:\u003c\/strong\u003e Outstanding — a magnet for honeyeaters, lorikeets and silvereyes; provides shelter for small birds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTolerance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Drought-tolerant once established; frost hardy to moderate; heat-tolerant; wind-tolerant; clay-tolerant (well-drained); coastal-tolerant (second-line)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlanting Density:\u003c\/strong\u003e Informal screen: 1.5–2 m apart; mass planting: 1–1.5 m apart; specimen: 2.5–3 m from other large shrubs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePet Friendly:\u003c\/strong\u003e Grevilleas contain compounds that can cause contact dermatitis in sensitive individuals and mild tummy upset if ingested — discourage pets from chewing foliage or flowers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhere It Works Best\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSunlight:\u003c\/strong\u003e Full sun to part shade; flowers best in full sun\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSoil:\u003c\/strong\u003e Well-drained loam, sandy loam or clay loam; slightly acidic to neutral; avoid phosphorus-rich fertilisers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWater Needs:\u003c\/strong\u003e Establishment: 2 deep soaks\/week for 8–12 weeks.
