About

Hakea anadenia is a shrub in the family Proteaceae, native to near the west coast of Western Australia. The fragrant creamy-white flowers appear in profusion from late winter to spring, but do not produce nectar.

How to grow it

A showy small shrub both drought and frost tolerant. Grows well in an open and sunny situation in well-drained soil. Although it does not produce nectar as a food source for wildlife it does provide good protection due to its prickly growth habit.

Where it grows

Hakea anadenia has a scattered distribution and is endemic to an area in the Wheatbelt region of Western Australia from around Dandaragan in the north to Williams in the south. Grows in sandy or gravelly soils over or around laterite usually in scrub-heath communities, also in mallee or low woodland areas.
