A small multi-stemmed mallee that produces attractive elongated shaped buds with horned caps. Large clusters of spectacular yellow flowers emerge when the caps open.
Flowering occurs typically during winter and spring but has been recorded as early as January depending on local conditions.
An ideal species for hot, dry harsh locations. Drought tolerant and frost resistant.
Prefers sandy every well-drained soil in an open sunny position.
Occurs naturally in the Great Victoria Desert of South Australia and Western Australia.
Although seeds can be sown most of the year if you avoid the coldest and hottest months, spring is generally the best time to sow.
The grow mix should be well-draining, preferably with organic compost. This will replicate the soil they require in nature.
A potting mix is not recommended.
Germination occurs in around 10-28 days at a soil temperature of 18-22°C
