An outstanding upright evergreen shrub with a strong, erect habit producing long stems topped with deep red bracts from autumn. As the season progresses, the bracts mature to an attractive bi-colour display in late winter, providing months of vibrant colour.

Highly prized as a cut flower and an excellent feature plant for coastal and Mediterranean-style gardens. Thrives in full sun with free-draining, acidic soil. Prune in late October after flowering to encourage strong growth and prolific bract production the following season. Protected by PVR.
