Penola Lavender Grevillea is a delightful, low-growing shrub that combines soft, aromatic foliage with a long season of vibrant blooms. Its short, needle-like leaves are a soft gray-green, releasing a light, pleasant fragrance when brushed. For much of the year, it is adorned with clusters of small but showy, curled, bright red spider flowers that are a favorite of honeyeaters and small birds. Its spreading, mounding habit and exceptional toughness make it a perfect choice for dry, sunny banks, rock gardens, or as a colorful, informal border plant.

• Fragrant Gray-Green Foliage: Features soft, lavender-like, aromatic leaves that add sensory interest to the garden even when not in bloom.

• Prolific Red Spider Flowers: Produces an abundance of small, curled, bright red flowers over a very long period, attracting nectar-feeding birds.

• Spreading, Mounding Habit: Grows wider than tall, forming a broad, dense mound that is excellent for covering ground and softening landscape edges.

• Extremely Drought & Frost Tolerant: Once established, it is incredibly resilient, tolerating severe drought, light frosts, and poor, well-drained soils.

• Perfect for Dry Banks & Rockeries: An outstanding plant for covering hot, dry slopes, spilling over retaining walls, or adding color to a gravel garden.
