This is possibly the hardiest Leucadendron for local conditions, with red tinted foliage and inflorescence flower bracts.
I have planted it on the south wall of the house. If it survives I may try a few more of the genus, if not I should probably give up!
Raised by Ian Bell in New Zealand in the 1960's from a hybrid between L.laureolum and a red form of L. salignum.
