*RETAIL - Banksia marginata
Evergreen shrub to small tree with a dense canopy of long, narrow, finely toothed leaves, medium green on top and silvery underneath for a bright, bicolor appearance. Yellow, bottle-brush flowers appear often but particularly in late summer through fall, making bees and hummingbirds very happy. Sun to slight shade with good drainage in almost any soil. Tolerates some drought once established and accepts moderate summer water. This form, collected the high plateau of Central Tasmania and shared with us by plantsman Ian Barclay, is expected to be one of the most frost hardy; tough, so far, to 15-18F, USDA zone 8b, and we are hoping for reports of lower temperatures.
