Protea are excellent additions to any garden. However, not everyone has garden spaces to enjoy them in. There are some varieties which perform excellently in pots and therefore can be enjoyed on a deck or patio. Below are some tips for receiving the best results from growing your Proteaflora plants in pots!

Most Proteas prefer soils that are well-drained and acidic and we suggest avoiding heavy clay soils. If you have a garden with heavy or clay soil, consider improving the drainage by using a free draining garden mix and either creating a raised garden bed (minimum height 30 - 45 cm) or installing underground drainage pipes.
