Grevillea ‘Peaches and Cream’

A popular, small to medium-sized hybrid Grevillea, Grevillea ‘Peaches and Cream’ is a bushy evergreen shrub with multicolored flowers over a long blooming season. Its loose flower clusters, up to 6 in. long (15 cm), are soft yellow at first, but they gradually gain pink and orange shades with age. Long-lasting, they are borne year-round in most regions. They supply birds and hummingbirds with a copious supply of nectar. The evergreen, deeply dissected, bright green foliage adds bronze highlights in the winter. Reliable in a wide range of climates and soils, it is tolerant of dry conditions and humidity and frost hardy to 25°F (-3°C). ‘Peaches and Cream’ is a hybrid Grevillea resulting from a cross between Grevillea bipinnatifida and Grevillea banksii.
