Leucadendron 'Wedding Bells'
Densely erect bushy shrub. It has soft downy green foliage. In spring wide bracts emerge a brilliant creamy-yellow colour. The stems are long and great for floral work. Very colourful and lasts through the late winter and spring. To maintain bushy habit, prune back stems in late spring. Best in a sunny site in well drained soil, tolerates dry conditions once established.
