Description:
Tucker Time® New Vintage™ is a selection from the species commonly called the Grape Grevillea, a reference to the large hanging bunches of red, gold & yellow flowers displayed from late summer to spring– while Tucker Time® New Vintage™ indicates that this low spreading shrub is a new development worthy of a special name. For the gardener, the divided lacy leaves provide great contrast mixed in with more simple-leaved plants. Very hardy in a range of climates from cool temperate to sub tropical and semi arid, in moist well drained clay, gravelly or sandy loams of a neutral to low acid pH. Even heavy frosts are tolerated as are second-line coastal sites.
