The Grevilleas are a member of a diverse family called Proteaceae, named after the God of many Forms in Greek mythology. Their leaves may be broad, needle or fern like or many shapes in between. The flowers in their arrangements from ‘spider, toothbrush to bottle brush’ and in colour through every hue from white to black. Most Grevilleas have long flowering periods with some being in bloom all year. They are the most valuable plants for attracting honey-eating birds to the garden. Grevilleas need sun and regular pruning will prolong their life & shape. Fertilizers with a high content of phosphorous should be avoided. Some additional water in dry times is beneficial. The predominant varieties grown in Queensland gardens are the so-called ‘tropical forms’ which all have large cylindrical flowers.
New varieties appear constantly and serious breeding is now in progress to discover a suitable specimen for the cut flower trade. Many Western Australian species are being grafted onto local rootstock to increase the varieties even more. The rootstock needs to be checked for suckers at the base. They must be removed or they will dominate the plant. Some Grevilleas are shallow rooted and not particularly useful for windbreaks.
