Common Name:
Grevillea 'Peaches and Cream'
Description:
Grevillea 'Peaches and Cream' is a stunning Australian native shrub renowned for its eye-catching, multi-coloured flowers and lush, dense foliage. A hybrid between Grevillea banksii (red form) and Grevillea bipinnatifida, this variety offers a compact, rounded growth habit with fine, deeply lobed green leaves that provide a soft, ferny texture. Its standout feature is the unique flower display—clusters of creamy yellow and peachy-pink blooms that appear throughout much of the year, creating a vibrant contrast against the greenery. These nectar-rich flowers are not only decorative but also highly attractive to birds and pollinators. Thriving in well-drained soils, it is drought-tolerant once established and performs best in full sun to part shade. Ideal for Melbourne gardens, this grevillea handles light frosts and adapts well to a variety of garden styles, from native to contemporary landscapes. With its long flowering season and easy-care nature, 'Peaches and Cream' is a superb choice for hedging, screening, or as a feature plant in garden beds and large containers.
