This hybrid kangaroo paw has a dwarf habit and vibrant dark orange to red flowers. When planted in good soil, with regular watering and feeding, it becomes a spectacular performer. It's not as vigorous in humid climates where it is disease-prone and best grown in a pot. The flowering season is mainly limited to spring. The flowers and foliage can be used in cut flower arrangements that make a wonderful display indoors.
