Wow! This is nice is it hardy here?

According to the label it is not frost hardy, so I will need to bring it in over winter, As it is in a pot that should not be a problem.

Ah yes .. I recognise this! This is the floral emblem of our state Western Australia, as they are native to that state. These red and green ones - anigozanthos manglesii - are rather short-lived over here. They usually last around 3-5 years in our gardens and in most of our botanic gardens they're treated as an annual.
