NEWSLETTER NO. 115 – FEBRUARY 2020 2 GREVILLEA NEWS NEWS FROM THE LIVING COLLECTION Neil Marriott, Vic 2019 was another big year –numerous new species were planted out following heavy winter rains, and sadly, quite a few losses over summer due to virtually no rain since the end of August!! Despite the dry spring we still finished up getting 501 mm for the year, which is quite a bit more than we have had for nearly a decade, but still way down on our pre-climate change “average” of 650-700 mm. Summers are now so hot and dry that I have to mulch every new plant with washed river sand and place on drippers for the first two to three years! Most new plants now need to be grafted onto an extremely hardy rootstock. Sadly this means we now mostly use Grevillea robusta as a rootstock, despite its inherent compatibility problems –many grafts now need an interstock to overcome this problem! If anyone comes up with a new rootstock as drought tolerant as Silky Oak please let us know!! Rootstocks such as Grevillea ‘Carrington Cross’, G. ‘Royal Mantle’, G. Bronze Rambler’ Grevillea chrysophaea - Holey Plains State Park or G. barklyana hybrid are useless in drought conditions! Even with this extra attention we still lose numerous plants Tragically, it appears that this is exactly what is happening every summer. We are often finding that the tops of the with many of our wild populations of Grevilleas burnt out plant are being “cooked” by the extremely hot windy days, over the last few years. The beautiful dwarf form of even when the roots are cool and moist!! Discussions on Grevillea chrysophaea found only in Holey Plains State this problem with Phil Vaughan at Pomonal reveal the same Park in Gippsland is an example; this park was hit by very thing happening in his garden, despite Phil having unlimited hot fires in the summer of 2018-19, and several visits by high quality bore water to keep his gardens moist!! members since then have failed to find ANY young plants at all.
