Protea repens, commonly known as the "sugarbush," is a striking shrub native to South Africa, valued for its unique, large flower heads and attractive foliage. To grow from seeds, soak the seeds in water for 24 hours to enhance germination. Sow them in well-drained, sandy soil in a sunny location. Protea repens prefers dry conditions and should be watered sparingly. It's best to plant seeds in late spring or early summer. This hardy plant is excellent for attracting birds and adds vibrant color to gardens and landscapes.
