Amber Velvet Kangaroo Paw
Anigozanthos ‘Amber Velvet’
Amber Velvet Kangaroo Paw captivates with its rich, warm, and multi-tonal flower color. The velvety flower stems display a beautiful gradient from golden-amber at the base to a deep, rusty red at the tips. This creates a captivating, "ombre" effect that adds depth and sophistication. Forming a medium-sized, tidy clump, it provides a long season of unique color that stands out beautifully against its gray-green foliage and complements a wide range of other garden plants.
