Grevillea aspleniifolia (Fern-leaf Grevillea) is a striking Australian native shrub admired for its beautifully textured, fern-like foliage and vibrant red toothbrush-shaped flowers. Flowering mainly through winter and spring, with sporadic blooms at other times, it provides a valuable splash of colour when many other plants are dormant, while also attracting birds, bees, and other pollinators to the garden.
This hardy and fast-growing shrub forms a dense, spreading habit, making it ideal for screening, hedging, or as a standout feature in native and low-maintenance gardens. Its finely divided foliage adds softness and movement to the landscape, contrasting beautifully with its bold floral display.
Grevillea aspleniifolia thrives in full sun to part shade and prefers well-drained soils. Once established, it is drought tolerant and requires minimal care. Light pruning after flowering will help maintain a compact shape and encourage more prolific blooming.
Key Features:
Deeply divided, fern-like foliage
Bright red toothbrush flowers in winter and spring
Fast-growing, dense shrub ideal for screening
Drought tolerant once established
Attracts birds, bees, and pollinators
2.5m x 2.5m prune to size and shape
A versatile and eye-catching native, Grevillea aspleniifolia is perfect for adding year-round texture and seasonal colour to Australian gardens.
