Banksia spinulosa ‘Birthday Candles’ is a compact small shrub and looks wonderful in a pot. Banksia prefer good drainage, so if you have clay soil, mix in organic matter such as mature compost with your garden soil and plant on a slight mound.
There is still plenty to do in the winter garden. And when the weather sends you inside, take the opportunity to plan a landscape for the coming seasons.
For information on plant maintenance and how to plan a landscape, read our winter article in Wombat Post.
Happy Gardening.
