Description
Hakea Burrendong Beauty is a hardy native shrub renowned for its spectacular display of vibrant orange-red bottlebrush-style flowers that bloom profusely in winter and spring. This robust plant features needle-like foliage and develops into a dense, upright shrub that’s perfect for screening, windbreaks, or as a striking feature plant.
