(Cutting Grown)Banksia ‘Schnapper Point’ is a compact shrub with a tidy, rounded habit, making it perfect for smaller gardens or large planters. Its fine, green foliage forms a soft, textured backdrop to the quirky cylindrical flowers, which appear in creamy-yellow to golden tones during the cooler months.
This character thrives in full sun with good drainage, and once established it’s tough, drought-tolerant, and low-maintenance. A versatile, pollinator-friendly plant, it adds structure, year-round interest, and classic Banksia charm to dry, sunny gardens.

The plant was in great shape upon arrival and will go into a larger pot until fall rains, when it will be planted in a special spot. I am having better luck growing some Banksias in the valley, but it is not as easy as on the coast. I appreciate Troy's effort to bring a large variety of Australian flowering shrubs to California gardens.
