A vigorous Australian native groundcover, Grevillea ‘Bronze Rambler’ forms a dense carpet of deeply divided green foliage with attractive bronze-red new growth. Rich red toothbrush flowers appear from spring through autumn, with flowering extending for much of the year in favourable conditions, attracting nectar-feeding birds to the garden.
Its low, spreading habit makes it ideal for covering sunny banks, filling large garden beds and cascading over retaining walls. Once established, its dense growth helps suppress weeds and provides shelter for small wildlife.
Height: Approximately 30–50 cm.
Spread: Approximately 3–5 metres; allow plenty of room.
Position: Full sun to partial shade.
Soil: Well-drained soil, including sandy soils and well-drained heavier soils.
Tolerance: Drought and frost tolerant once established.
Care: Water regularly during establishment and provide additional water during prolonged dry periods. Prune lightly to maintain a dense habit and keep spreading growth within bounds.
An excellent choice for gardeners seeking a hardy, fast-growing groundcover with colourful new foliage and bird-attracting flowers.
Why we love this plant
We love ‘Bronze Rambler’ for its beautiful bronze-red new growth, rich red flowers and ability to turn a bare bank into a lush carpet of native foliage. Its dense growth helps keep weeds down, while the nectar-rich flowers bring birds into the garden. Hardy and generous in its spreading habit, it’s a lovely choice for softening retaining walls and filling larger spaces with colour and texture.
