Anigozanthos flavidus - Kangaroo Paw

Market price from $10.75 to $28.50

Anigozanthos flavidus is more popularly known as the Kangaroo Paw—a product of the Haemodoraceae family and a proudly perennial plant native to Western Australia. What sets the Kangaroo Paw apart is its unique, tubular flowers that, as the name suggests, intriguingly mimic the form of a kangaroo's paw. These unique features flourish in a vibrant spectrum of shades, ranging from emerald green to rich red and sunny yellow, providing a captivating floral display most abundant between August and October. The plant's distinctively long, sword-like leaves provide an evergreen backdrop that further emphasizes the striking beauty of the flowers. Despite its exotic appearance, the Kangaroo Paw is an adaptable and hardy plant, demonstrating steady growth in well-drained soils under either full sun or in the comfortable cool of partial shade. Its tolerance of light frost widens its suitability across diverse climates. Simultaneously practical and aesthetically pleasing, this low-maintenance plant not only resists most pests but also serves as a significant attraction for local birdlife. With a generous growth size of up to 2 meters high and 1 meter wide, Kangaroo Paw simultaneously makes a bold statement and a natural addition to any landscape.
