Hakea multilineata is generally a shrub in habit with flowers that occur profusely in racemes about 50-70 mm long in the leaf axils in winter and spring. The flower colour is usually bright pink. Although the flowers occur within the foliage, the open habit of the plant means that they are well displayed.
Leaves up to 200 mm long and 15 mm wide with numerous parallel veins.

Occurring in both Western and South Australia.

Prefers light to heavy soil in an open sunny position, frost and drought resistant.

Hakea belongs to the ancient plant family Proteaceae, which split into two subfamilies, Grevilleoideae in Australia and Proteoideae in South Africa, before the separation of the Gondwanaland continent around 140 million years ago.

The best time to sow Hakea is spring.

  • Sow the seeds into a tray of well-drained coarse sand and vermiculite seed-raising mix.
  • Do not sow too deep; they only need to be covered with a small amount mix.
  • Keep the mix moist but not saturated.
  1. Germination should occur in 14-42 days, depending on the temperature and conditions.

Pre-germination of seeds by sowing into a closed container containing moist vermiculite or similar material is also useful, particularly for winter sowing when outdoor temperatures may be unsuitable.

Germination usually occurs in 1-2 weeks using this method, and when the root has reached about a centimetre or so in length, the seedling can be placed into a small pot of seed-raising mix.

*Please note:
• Please do not be too hasty in discarding seeds that do not germinate; seeds will often lay dormant until conditions are like their natural germination requirements.
• All seeds must have adequate water to germinate; keep them moist but not too wet.
• These growth notes are provided as guidance only and do not guarantee successful germination.
• Customers should do their due diligence and ensure they are suited to their region.
