Habitat

Adaptable to a range of Australian climates, it is typically grown as a grafted specimen to improve vigour and tolerance of heavier soils.
Cultural SIgnificance
While this is a modern hybrid cultivar, it represents the successful breeding of native Australian plants and continues the tradition of Grevilleas being important nectar sources for Aboriginal peoples and native wildlife.
