Plant in full sun and water occasionally to regularly spring through fall. Hardy to about 25-30 degrees F.

The genus was first named by the French botanist Jacques Labillardière 1800 when he collected and described the type species, Anigozanthos rufus, which he had collected during the d'Entrecasteaux expedition to Southwest Australia in 1792 though he did not provide a meaning for this name in his description. Several botanical texts list it as a combination of the Greek words 'anoigo' meaning "to expand" and 'anthos' meaning a "flower" which would be in reference to the the flower being split but others speculated it to be the combination of the Greek words 'anisos' meaning "unequal" and 'anthos' meaning a "flower" in reference to the irregular corolla.

Anigozanthos 'Bush Devil' is a cultivar that resulted from a genetic mutation of the Anigozanthos 'Bush Ranger' which is a hybrid between Anigozanthos humilis and Anigozanthos flavidus. It is a tetraploid hybrid much like 'Bush Ranger' with bright red flowers but differing in being more vigorous and slightly taller. We grew this cultivar from 2005 until 2011.
