About Grevillea
Grevillea (Grevillea spp.) are Australian native shrubs and small trees grown in NE Florida for their striking spider-like or toothbrush-shaped flowers in red, orange, yellow, or white, highly attractive to hummingbirds and bees. They thrive in full sun and well-drained, sandy, low-phosphorus soil and are drought-tolerant once established, performing well in Zone 9b. Starting at $24.95.

Care essentials
Light
Plant Grevillea in full sun — at least 6–8 hours daily. Full sun in NE Florida's sandy soils is ideal; shade reduces flowering significantly and increases moisture-related root issues.
Water
Drought-tolerant once established; water new plants regularly through the first growing season, then reduce to deep, infrequent irrigation during dry periods. Overwatering is the primary cause of failure — Grevillea is highly susceptible to root rot in wet or heavy soils.
Soil & Fertilizer
Requires sandy, well-drained, acidic soil low in phosphorus — NE Florida's native sandy soils are naturally well-suited. Do not use fertilizers containing phosphorus, which can be toxic to Grevillea. A light application of low-phosphorus native plant fertilizer in spring is sufficient.
