Isopogon is a distinctive Australian native shrub admired for its unusual flowers, attractive foliage and outstanding garden performance.
Closely related to Proteas and Leucospermums, Isopogon produces striking cone-like flower heads in shades of yellow, cream and pink, followed by decorative seed cones that provide lasting interest long after flowering has finished.
Often referred to as Drumsticks due to their unique flower shape, Isopogons bring texture and architectural appeal to native gardens, mixed shrub borders and feature plantings. Their nectar-rich flowers attract bees, butterflies and other beneficial pollinators, while the seed heads add an extra dimension to the landscape throughout the year.
Thriving in well-drained soils and sunny positions, Isopogons are well suited to Australian conditions and are relatively drought tolerant once established. Many varieties also make excellent cut flowers, with both the blooms and seed cones popular in fresh and dried floral arrangements.
