I am Bush Coral Kangaroo Paw. My family originated from South Western Australia.

Habit Strappy - Bird attracting

Plant family Haemodoraceae

I am a medium sized kangaroo paw, producing strong heavily branched flower spikes with vivid bright coral coloured blooms year round. My arched deep green foliage contrasts beautifully with my prolific blooms. I am long lived as a cut flower to be enjoyed indoors. I am excellent at attracting small nectar feeding birds to the garden. I am happiest in a sunny spot but tolerate light shade. Remove my spent blooms at the base of the stem to maintain my tidy appearance. Once a year removal of older and damaged leaves by simply pulling them away from the plant also improves my tidiness.

I am popular and will make you happy because...

I am a unique Australian native plant equally happy planted in a pot or in the garden

My long lived blooms attract honey eaters and other small nectar feeding birds
