Showy Parrot-pea

Living up to its name, the Showy Parrot-pea is an erect, slender native shrub growing around 50cm to 1 meter tall, featuring fine, soft, upward-pointing needle leaves. In spring, it produces a breathtaking, highly dense column of flowers, with pairs of bright yellow, orange, and intense red-purple pea blossoms packed tightly along the upright stems. It looks spectacular when mass-planted in a sunny native garden bed or rocky border.
