Yeah not looking too good Pal, Aussie natives, and I reckon even South Africans, (leucadendrons) can be difficult outside of their native habitat. Having said that both of those like similar conditions; neutral to slightly acidic soil, excellent drainage, and they hate root disturbance. In fact you can easily over care for them - both are very tolerant of dry conditions. Many also are not happy in humid conditions. Lime, by the way, will yellow the leaves and eventually kill them so I reckon the first thing Id do is check the ph. in the soil. Oh, and if you feed them use only fertilisers suitable for Aussie natives, and use it sparingly. Other than that good luck with 'em B.

Yes I think that would be a good idea, I have copy and pasted this from another site : It is best to take your cuttings from the hardened new growth that arises between October and April. The plant producing your cutting material should have finished a growth surge, with a clean and healthy appearance and no moulds on the stems. Cut it into 7-10cm lengths, and trim the leaves off the lower half of the cutting, ensuring no bark is torn off the stem. Remove young growing shoots or flowers. Dip the cut end into a rooting hormone powder to stimulate faster, more reliable root growth. Grevilleas prefer a low nutrient propagation mix, like 1:2 parts peat moss and coarse sand. Place the entire pot in a plastic bag and seal. The new cutting will produce roots in about 4 to 8 weeks, and can be potted up once the roots are 3-5cm long. Are you keeping the cuttings cool like wrapping them in damp paper if not potting up straight away as they will dry out quickly, I have potted up hundreds of cuttings and none have died within four days as they usually have enought moisture in them to keep them alive for a while and this is Queensland. And Pete's (Gardening Australia) other rooting compound is vegemite but I have never tried that interesting all the same yes do let us know how you go.......MM.

Hi Donna have not heard of this name either, but many different plants are called by different names all over, but you could try a search through this site. Good luck. Peter r Here is a link that might be useful: ASGAP

Hi again, with apologies for the delay after saying I would post a pic. Thanks to Mistymorn for instructions, but unfortunately the security setup on my PC is blocking this! But clever hubbie is working on it  In the meantime, I found a website which pictures Kay Williams. Click on the thumbnails for a larger pic.
