White-flowered Hakea

The White-flowered Hakea is an uncommon, highly attractive native shrub growing 1.5 to 2.5 meters high, heavily distinguished by its large, thick, leathery grey-green leaves with prominent, raised structural veins. In winter, it bears highly dense, showy clusters of soft white-to-cream flowers that pop dramatically against the structural backdrop. It handles dry, rocky, or nutrient-poor soils with ease, forming a tough mid-layer hedge[cite: 27].
