White plumed Grevillea

Grevillea leucopteris

The attractive, abundant flowers on tall, leggy canes away from its foliage make this grevillea a striking addition to your garden. Its hardy nature and thick foliage also make it perfect for a hedge or screen in many conditions. This native to WA is also known as ‘Old Socks Grevillea’ due to the scent of its flowers, said to resemble old, dirty socks – but honey eaters and native bees love the scent of this variety throughout its spring and summer flowering season. Ensure its planted in well-drained soil.
