Protea Special Pink Ice

Protea Pink Ice is the hardiest and most prolific flowering of all the proteas. It has an abundance of stunning deep pink flowers with silvery-white fringed bracts, giving them a frosted appearance. The flowers contrast beautifully against bright green foliage, and delights the gardener with a long flowering period from March to October. It's compact growth habit makes Special Pink Ice ideal for small areas, mass planting, formal hedges and containers.
