Leucospermum 'Ayoba® Red' brings bold crimson drama to spring gardens with its spectacular red blooms that serve as beacons for visiting birds. This compact shrub excels in water-wise landscapes, offering year-round structure with seasonal bursts of intense color that make stunning focal points in any garden design.
Success with this indigenous beauty starts with choosing the right location - a sunny spot with sandy, free-draining soil works best. Water generously during establishment (first two seasons), then step back and let nature take over with minimal irrigation. Avoid fertilizers completely as these plants have evolved to thrive in poor soils, and remember to snip off spent blooms to keep the display looking fresh.
