Anigozanthos 'Harmony' (Red-Yellow Kangaroo Paw) - Upright evergreen perennial plant with 2-3 feet tall sword-like foliage and 4-5 feet tall wands of yellow flowers with reddish stems in spring-fall. Plant in a sunny and open position in the garden in well-drained soils. Irrigate regularly and fertilize in spring (not heavily and keep phosphorus on the low side). Fans only flower once and need to be cleaned out after the flowering period so remove the old leaves down to as low as possible at the end of a season. Care should be exercised that the new emerging fans are not damaged. Treat for snails. Hardy to about 25-30 degrees F. Attracts hummingbirds. This cultivar is very similar 'Yellow Gem'.
