Farming
Leucospermum Reflexum
We love red "rockets". The leaves are bluish-grey, the stems are lavender, and the flowers fire-engine red. The flower heads 'reflex' back until all of the styles are pointing down, like the flames from a bottle rocket.
The Protea are a long term commitment. These newly planted won't start flowering for about 3 years.
