Firewheel Tree

Stenocarpus sinuatus

This medium to large Australian rainforest tree enjoys sub-tropical to tropical climates but will also grow in temperate areas, albeit smaller in stature.

Its evergreen foliage is a backdrop to highly ornamental red-orange circular flowers in Summer. It will grow well in most soil types, but does best in rich, loamy, fertile soil and sun to part shade. Slow growing initially, it’s ideal as a statement or ornamental tree and for creating shade, and a hardy nature also means it’s called on as a street tree in many locations such as Sydney and Melbourne.

Endemic to Western Australia, this annual everlasting daisy is a go-to-choice for creating pretty native wildflower meadow effects in your garden. With flowers ranging from pure white to deep pink with contrasting bright yellow or deep black centres, each stem is topped with a flower appearing from August to November that opens in full sunshine, closing at night or in wet conditions. Can attract a range of bees and other pollinating insects to your garden. Be sure to grow in sandy open soil in sun to part shade, feed with native fertilizer and water in dry weather and cut back old flowers to encourage reshooting. Everlastings can also be dried by hanging upside down after cutting – pick in bud, they will open as they dry and retain their colour. H-0.2-0.7m W-0.2-0.4m
