Adenanthos sericeus, commonly known as Woolly Bush, is a shrub which in native to Australia.

Description

It is a shrub which can grow up to 5 metres in height. It produces red or orange flowers between early winter and mid autumn (June to April in Australia).

Distribution

The species occurs in Western Australia on coastal sandhills and outcrops.

Cultivation

Woolly Bush is grown for its attractive soft foliage rather than its flowers which are quite small. In cultivation it usually grows to between 2 and 3 metres in height and a similar width, and requires little pruning to stay shapely.

Due to its salt and wind tolerance, it makes an excellent coastal plant, but is not suited to heavier soils. It has a medium to fast growth rate.
