Product Information
We do our best to ensure product descriptions, specifications, care information and other details are accurate and up to date. Information is provided as a general guide and may vary between batches, suppliers, individual plants or product revisions.

Stock availability
Website stock levels update live from our inventory system, but occasional discrepancies can occur due to in-store sales, damage or stock adjustments. This is more likely when only 1 or 2 units are showing as available.

Product images
Images are provided as a visual guide and may not show the exact individual item for sale. Plants can naturally vary in size, fullness, colour, shape and stage of growth, and images may show a mature specimen to demonstrate how a younger plant may develop.

Images are either owned by Kambarang Garden Centre, used under an appropriate licence or with permission, or created with AI assistance. AI imagery is used to improve the background of existing photos, and to provide representative images where a suitable real-world photo is difficult or impractical to obtain, particularly for mature plants. Special care is taken to preserve the genuine appearance, colour, form, foliage, flowers and growth habit as accurately as current AI image technology allows.

Plant sizing
Plant sizes refer to the pot size, not the exact size of the plant. For example:

  • 100 mm = 10 cm diameter pot
  • 140 mm = 14 cm diameter pot
  • 5 L = 5 litre pot

Smaller pot sizes generally indicate younger plants, although actual plant size can vary significantly between species, varieties and growth habits.

Description

The "Orange Cross" cultivar of Kangaroo Paw (Anigozanthos) is a captivating presence with its deep orange flowers that fade to light yellow-green tips. Blooming year-round but predominantly in the warmer months, it adds a continuous splash of colour to any setting. Drought-hardy once established, "Orange Cross" is adaptable to both in-ground and pot planting, enhancing gardens with its vivid tones.

Whether showcased as a focal point or blended with other native plants, "Orange Cross" thrives in full sun and can grow in various soil types, including sandy soils that can be improved with organic matter. Watering needs are minimal, and a native fertiliser applied in Djilba (late winter to early spring) and Djeran (autumn) encourages vibrant growth. Prune hard to the ground in early Djeran (autumn) to refresh the plant, ensuring that its striking appearance continues to dazzle and uplift the garden landscape.
