Grevillea rosmarinifolia
Grevillea rosmarinifolia
Grevillea rosmarinifolia, or Rosemary Grevillea, is a hardy, evergreen shrub native to southeastern Australia, commonly found in woodlands and along watercourses. Growing up to 2 meters tall and wide, it features narrow, rosemary-like green leaves and clusters of vibrant, spider-like flowers in shades of red, pink, or cream, blooming profusely from winter to spring and intermittently throughout the year. These nectar-rich flowers attract a wide range of pollinators, including birds, bees, and butterflies.
Thriving in well-drained soils and tolerating full sun to partial shade, Rosemary Grevillea is drought-tolerant and low-maintenance once established. It is ideal for use as a hedge, feature plant, or part of a mixed native garden. Its dense growth provides shelter and nesting sites for small birds, enhancing local biodiversity.
With its striking flowers, adaptability, and ecological benefits, Grevillea rosmarinifolia is a versatile and visually appealing choice for native gardens, habitat plantings, and sustainable landscaping projects.
