Orange Kangaroo Paw (Anigozanthos 'Orange Cross')
A tall Kangaroo paw with large, impressive, individual flowers which can reach 2 metres high. This paw is a strong grower that persists from year to year.
Great for cut flowers and attracts birds that feed from the nectar rich flowers. Strappy dark green leaves.
Performs best in a sunny spot and is adaptable to different soils.
Once established, cut back hard to the ground to rejuvenate, as it will regrow from the underground rhizomes. Feed and water after cutting back to help the new growth.
