Poorinda Royal Mantle Grevillea (Standard) - Grevillea ‘Poorinda Royal Mantle’
‘Poorinda Royal Mantle’ is the best known prostrate grevillea in Australian horticulture, normally used as a broad groundcover with deep red toothbrush flowers and handsome lobed leaves that flush bronze on new growth. Lifted onto a clear stem as a standard, that vigorous trailing growth becomes a dense weeping mantle that can hang most of the way back to the ground. It is a strong, fast, hardy plant that gives a formal shape while flowering for most of the year.
Why Poorinda Royal Mantle Grevillea
Dense Weeping Head: Vigorous trailing stems build a full, heavy curtain rather than a sparse skirt.
Long Flowering: Deep red toothbrush flower heads appear across most of the year, with the heaviest display in winter and spring.
Bronze New Growth: Fresh leaves emerge coppery bronze against the mature dark green, giving two tones at once.
Proven Hardiness: A long established Australian cultivar with a well documented record in gardens across the temperate zone.
Grafted Root Tolerance: Grafting onto a vigorous understock lets it handle clay and mildly alkaline soils that would defeat it on its own roots.
Ideal Applications
Lawn Specimen: A single standard on a lawn gives a low, rounded weeping form without a tree's root competition.
Driveway Punctuation: Repeated down a drive, the matched heads deliver formal rhythm in a native palette.
Above a Wall: Planted on top of a retaining wall the mantle spills down over the stonework.
Bird Attracting Feature: The abundant flowers pull honeyeaters into the garden at close viewing range.
Specimen & Installation
Spacing (screening/hedge): 2 to 2.5m for a repeated run
Spacing (feature/avenue): 3 to 4m
Best Planting Season: Spring and autumn
Soil & Drainage: Free draining soil, neutral to acidic. Plant slightly proud of grade and mound heavy clay so water moves away from the collar
Establishment Care: Water weekly for the first three months to settle the root ball, then reduce to occasional deep soakings in prolonged dry weather only. Use no phosphorus, apply a low phosphorus native fertiliser lightly in early spring, retain the stake until the trunk is fully rigid, and trim the weeping head after the main flush to keep it dense and to stop the longest stems reaching the ground and rooting.
