Protea Limelight Details

Protea Limelight produces large, lime green flower heads with red-purple tips from autumn through spring. It grows as a woody shrub to about 2 m tall and the same wide with thick stems and large, glossy, dark green leaves. Best results with this variety are achieved when it is grown in full sun on a well-drained site. It is tolerant of extended dry periods, moderate frost, and cool climates, though some protection while establishing will benefit overall performance. This is a versatile plant that is often included in mixed plantings, added to coastal gardens, maintained in a container, planted around pool areas, or grown anywhere the beauty of the large flowers can be enjoyed.
