Protea ‘King Summer’ is a striking feature shrub known for its huge, bowl-shaped pink blooms with silvery tips that appear in summer. Its bold flowers and lush green foliage make it a standout in native or coastal gardens. Best grown in full sun with well-drained, acidic soil, it’s drought-tolerant once established but prefers protection from heavy frost. Grows to around 1.5–2 m tall and 1–1.5 m wide.

Supplied in a 140mm pot.
