Proteas and bottle brushes

Lincolnshire

OK so bad planning, I'll have to reorder these images. Anyway this shows Banksia marginata, exceptionally hardy in Lincolnshire, flowers all through the winter and will need pruning soon. There's a Callistemon viriflorus in front and slightly to the right of it, a stalky leggy thing that doesn't do much. To the right of this is Protea cynaroides, wich grows about 4-6" a year, but so far that's it. Hidden in there is also a Telopea oreades which flowered this year. Further to the right and out of shot are a couple of Grevillia with the backdrop being a Leucadendron, Phormium and Cordyline.
