Anigozanthos ‘Cape Magenta’
Tubular pink flowers that look like kangaroo's paws and bloom for months.
Kangaroo paws have some of the most distinctive flowers in the botanical world with clusters of fuzzy tubular flowers that look like a kangaroo’s paw and that bloom for months! ‘Cape Magenta’ has mid to deep pink flowers on stems to two feet tall above iris-like mid-green foliage. Tolerant of some freezing but safest to bring plants inside to a greenhouse or as a houseplant in winter.
