Banksia Ericifolia Dwarf, Heath Leaved Banksia

Banksia ericifolia, commonly known as Dwarf Heath Leaved Banksia, is a compact and attractive evergreen shrub native to Australia. It features dense, heath-like foliage and stunning cylindrical flower spikes that bloom in shades of yellow or orange during the winter and spring months. This dwarf variety reaches a manageable size, typically growing up to 2-4 feet in height and spread.

To grow Banksia ericifolia Dwarf, provide it with a well-drained soil enriched with organic matter. It thrives in full sun but can tolerate partial shade. Water the plant regularly during the establishment period, ensuring the soil remains moist but not waterlogged. Once established, it is relatively drought-tolerant. Prune lightly after flowering to maintain a compact shape and encourage bushier growth.

With its manageable size and striking flowers, Banksia ericifolia Dwarf is an excellent choice for small gardens, rockeries, or container planting, adding beauty and a touch of Australian flair to any landscape.
