Grevillea Moonlight

Common Name: Grevillea 'Moonlight'

Description: Grevillea 'Moonlight' is a fast-growing, upright evergreen shrub native to Australia, renowned for its luminous ivory-white flower clusters that can reach up to 25 cm in length. These striking blooms are present year-round, with peak flowering periods in winter and spring, providing a continuous nectar source that attracts birds and pollinators to the garden. The plant features deeply divided, dark green, fern-like foliage, adding a fine-textured backdrop to its vibrant flowers. Thriving in well-drained soils, 'Moonlight' prefers full sun but can tolerate partial shade, making it well-suited to Melbourne's climate. Once established, it exhibits excellent drought tolerance and can withstand light frosts. Regular pruning after flowering helps maintain its shape and encourages denser growth. 'Moonlight' is an excellent choice for use as a feature plant, informal hedge, or screening shrub in various garden settings.​
