Native to WA, Hakea laurina is shrub or small tree commonly known as kodjet or pincushion hakea. It bears long blue-green leaves and stunning pink to red round pincushion like flowers. Nectar and a slight fragrance is produced from the flowerheads.
Care
Plant in well drained soil and water in well until established (2-3 times per week, more during summer). For best results prune. Right from the start, cut a few centimetres of tip growth from each stem, to keep the plant bushier. As it grows, prune lightly all over, taking 10–20cm off after flowering. Do not prune a hakea back too hard.
