Phoenix Rising Leucospermum lives up to its name with a blazing display of fiery yellow-orange pincushion flowers that erupt throughout spring like sparks from a flame. This dense-growing leucospermum features soft blue-green foliage that perfectly complements the vivid blooms, creating a bold, sculptural statement in the garden. Low maintenance and sun-loving, Phoenix Rising is stunning in feature pots, garden beds, mass plantings or vibrant flowering hedges. Like all proteas, it attracts birds and pollinators while delivering exceptional long-lasting cut flowers. Dramatic, colourful and impossible to overlook, this variety brings serious energy to any outdoor space. Soil: Well-drained soil. If you have clay soils, use mounds to plant into to facilitate drainage. Be sure to use a native soil mix when planting. Exotic potting mix or exotic fertiliser will kill them.
