Notes from the plant tag:

Strawberry Smoothie is a small spreading shrub that produces a spectacular mass display of strawberry coloured flowers during late autumn to early spring.

Position: Prefers full sun though will tolerate part dappled shade. It is adaptable to most well drained soils, and requires summer watering when conditions are dry.

Care: It is best to initially feed with a slow release low phosphorus fertiliser to help establish the plant.

It is beneficial to follow up with the occasional reapplication of fertiliser and apply as required. Mulching around the base of the plant will help retain moisture and suppress weeds.

Uses: Strawberry Smoothie is dense in habit and is a useful shrub in rockery plantings, it can be used to fill in areas in the landscape where low level plantings are required in garden beds. This plant produces colour & nectar for fauna over the cooler months.

Caution: Some individuals are sensitive to grevilleas and the foliage and flowers can cause skin irritations.
