Banksia repens in 50mm Forestry Tube

$10.00

Description

Banksia repens is a low growing spreading banksia that effectively acts as a ground-cover. Long thick intricately lobed leaves grow up from the ground hugging branches. From October to November the flower cones arise well beyond the leaves and are variable shades of orange, tan and pinkish shades in overall colour and range from 6 to 10 cm high. As the flower spikes age, they fade to a greyish colour, the old flowers persisting. Full sun or part shade. Well drained soils. Coastal, frost and drought tolerant. Good for soil binding.
