Anigozanthos
Royal Cheer ~ Kangaroo Paws |
| The bright
green flowers of Anigozanthos Royal Cheers will last for several months. This is as great cut
flower as a garden plant.
The distinctive look of the Kangaroo Paws will catch the attention of even the most discerning
gardening snob. This is a great addition to the perennial border in
areas that are irrigated with drip irrigation. There is a black fungus that gets going on the iris-like leaves
if the plants are watered with spray type irrigation, and
this is hard to get rid of. It is caused by excessive overhead watering. I
usually put them on a drip system and water them infrequently once established. This
dwarf cultivar gets to about 2 feet tall. It is hardy to the high 20's.
It will grow in some
shade but performs better in full sun.
