Leucospermum, commonly known as Pincushion Flower, are show-stopping shrubs renowned for their vivid, spiky blooms and bold, contemporary appeal. Flowering from late winter through spring, their radiant colours—ranging from fiery reds and oranges to soft yellows—create a dramatic focal point in the garden.

Their distinctive blooms—rich with nectar—are a magnet for birds, bees and other pollinators, bringing life and movement into the garden. Thriving in full sun and free-draining soils, Leucospermum are drought tolerant once established and well suited to coastal, native and modern landscape designs. Their compact, rounded forms provide structure year-round, while their spectacular flowers deliver unrivalled seasonal impact.

Highly sought after in floristry, Leucospermum produce long-lasting cut flowers with excellent stem strength, making them ideal for both fresh and dried arrangements. When growing in pots, ensure an Australian native potting mix and native fertiliser are used, and select a container with adequate drainage holes, as these plants do not tolerate waterlogging.
