Notes
'Safari Sunshine' leucadendron (Leucadendron 'Safari Sunshine') is a shrub for borders, containers, hedges, and xeriscape gardens. It grows outdoors year-round in USDA zone 9 and warmer, down to about 20°F (-7°C). In colder areas, grow it as a houseplant or bring it indoors for winter. This plant likes full sun and dry, sandy or loamy soil. It sits low on the menu for deer. It stays evergreen and tolerates drought, so it needs little care once settled.
Pairs well with Aeonium, Pride of madeira, Elijah Blue blue fescue, and American century plant.
