Grevillea "Pink Lady" (grevillea juniperina)

This Australian native has bloomed non stop since November. Not just bloomed, but bloomed well!

Very much one of my favourites Delonix!

Does it tolerate snow?

13 Mar, 2013

 

Snow, frozen roots, everything really! A few buds got frost burnt, but a very low percentage.

That's amazing! I didn't know it was so hardy. Of course, here it would never take that kind of cold abuse!

It has surprised me too. It's native to the southern areas of Australia where it can get some cold, but not like this.

Yes, in it's native habitat it doesn't snow. That's what surprised me so much!

We fear snow less than hard frosts!

Yes, I would guess without the snow, the ground could get colder when temperatures drop well below freezing. Although, with that being said, many warm-temperate to subtropical plants cannot tolerate snow.

"Although, with that being said, many warm-temperate to subtropical plants cannot tolerate snow."

That is the problem that I have!

I'm sure. You don't get much snow there, right?

Not much compared to parts of mainland Europe................

Yes, I would so, since you're on a big island. :>)
