Grevillea 'Dorothy Gordon' is already flowering again in the garden after a hard prune (with the hedge trimmer) in winter. This is a great hybrid Grevillea for using as either a feature planting or a dense screen (with regular pruning).

Parentage is G. sessilis x G. paradoxa according to the breeders - which always surprises me a bit. Definitely worth a spot in any native garden with at least some water available (and no heavy frosts). Not hard to find in nurseries at different times - but not sure why growers don't have larger numbers available right across the year.
