Care Instructions
Adapts to a variety of soils with excellent drainage; prefers loamy, gravelly, lightly acidic soil. Water deeply, regularly in first growing season to establish root system, taking care not to overwater. Once established, reduce frequency; tolerates moderate drought. Feed sparingly in spring; avoid high phosphorus fertilizers. Prune in late spring after flowering to shape and reduce size if desired.
History
This plant was discovered as a spontaneous seedling hybrid under a mature plant of Grevillea leiophylla in the garden of Mervyn Hodge at Logan Reserve, Queensland in 1999. The likely pollen parent was thought to be Grevillea humilis ssp. maritima, as it was growing nearby.
