How to Grow and Care for Tailflowers

Yellow tailflower is a coastal shrub native to Australia, adapting to sandy soils with its deep root system. It features narrow, fleshy leaves that resist salt spray and retain moisture. The plant is especially noted for its vibrant yellow, bell-shaped flowers that bloom prominently, attracting pollinators and providing stark contrast to the dunes it stabilizes.

Red-striped yellow tailflower is a striking evergreen shrub native to Australia, featuring glossy, spiny, holly-like leaves. This plant often reaches up to 3 meters in height, adorned with a profusion of yellow tubular flowers that attract pollinators. Thriving in well-drained, sandy soils, red-striped yellow tailflower is adapted to coastal environments, tolerating both drought and salt spray, which shapes its robust morphology.

Sticky tailflower is a sticky, shrub-like plant, recognized by its glossy, dark green leaves and vibrant yellow, tubular flowers. Its distinctive stickiness comes from the resinous exudate covering its foliage, a trait adapting the plant to arid environments by reducing water loss. The tubular flowers are a beacon for pollinators and add visual allure, while the plant's bushy structure provides habitat complexity within its ecosystem.
