Long John' Grevillea
One of the most popular grevilleas, Grevillea ‘Long John’ is a beautiful shrub grown for its dazzling flowers and evergreen foliage of small, pointed leaves. Large clusters of coral flowers are produced freely and are borne at the end of the upright branches over much of the year. They supply birds and hummingbirds with a copious supply of nectar. The flowers make excellent cut flowers.
