Hakea laurina

Foliage Evergreen Form Round Mature Size 5 x 4m Family Proteaceae

Pincushion Hakea This is an attractive small evergreen which can be grown as a tree or shrub. Long leathery leaves are thick and smooth with prominent veining and have a tendency to wave and curl. Fascinating, cherry red, ball-like flowers appear from autumn to late winter, adorned with long, white pin-like stamens, earning its common name of 'Pincushion Hakea'. Native to southern parts of Western Australia, it is a hardy, drought tolerant plant which attracts birds into the garden and can also be useful as a cut flower. A great tree for smaller gardens. Great feature tree. Can be used as a screening tree or an informal hedge. Adds a splash of colour in autumn and winter when your garden might be lacking colour. Light soil is preferred but must be well drained. Loves a full sun position and is perfect for strong wind.
