Grevillea ‘Orange Box’

A dense compact shrub with small, glossy dark foliage and masses of bright orange flowers. Makes an outstanding low hedge which may be kept trimmed as a strong and compact low hedge, or allowed to grow taller as a clipped screen; it forms a handsome container plant, and a specimen plant of particular impact when grown in mixed plantings designed for bird habitat. Feed in spring and summer with a low phosphorus native fertilizer, watering in well afterwards to avoid leaf burn.

Note – some grevilleas can cause skin irritation to some people. If you are affected wear protective clothing when handling grevilleas
