Waratah 'Linda' 30cm

Telopea speciosissima ‘Linda’ is a striking waratah known for its large, vibrant red flower heads that appear during spring. It has a strong upright habit with dark green foliage, making for a standout feature plant beyond its show-stopping seasonal blooms. These flowers aren't just beautiful, they're extremely attractive to native insect and bird pollinators, driving biodiversity and helping create a thriving garden environment. This hardy and eye-catching plant is perfect for native and wildlife-friendly gardens, pots, and even native landscapes - 'Linda' is an absolute must-have.

Performs best in well-drained, acidic (low pH) soil. ‘Linda’ has mild frost tolerance and is well-suited to cooler temperate climates, such as Melbourne. Water regularly until established. Once established, water requirements are low, but be sure to keep soil moist during dry spells and heatwaves. Apply specialty Australian native fertiliser when necessary to promote healthy growth and soil.
