Leucospermum Tango is a stunning deep red variety of pincushion flower, known for producing masses of long-lasting blooms throughout spring. Its bright, fiery flowers stand out against its rich green foliage, creating a dynamic contrast in gardens. This Leucospermum variety is perfect for adding a bold touch to any garden or floral arrangement.
Leucospermum Tango thrives in well-drained, acidic soil and should be planted in a location that receives plenty of sunlight. While drought-tolerant once established, it will benefit from occasional deep watering during dry periods. Avoid overwatering, as it may cause root rot. This plant is particularly suitable for unexperienced gardeners, as it requires minimal care once established.
Images are for reference only. These juvenile plants, approximately 15 cm in height, are from small-scale production and come in nursery bags. As living organisms, the size, number of leaves, and other characteristics may vary by individual plant and season. Availability may also vary. Leucospermums are more sensitive than other proteas, so long international shipments may cause cosmetic damage.
