Scarlet Honey Possum (Banksia coccinea) is a truly spectacular Australian native, renowned for its vivid orange flowers and soft, velvety foliage. Its cone shaped flowers appear like glowing torches, with long fiery-orange pistils emerging from its silvery-grey coloured foliage, creating a dramatic contrast.
Perfectly suited to sandy soils and coastal conditions, Scarlet Honey Possum thrives in fresh air and cool breezes, making it an exceptional choice for seaside gardens and well-drained landscapes.
What sets our Banksia Coccinea variety apart at Proteaflora is its provenance. Scarlet Honey Possum is cutting-grown from a single elite selection, ensuring outstanding uniformity, earlier flowering, and consistently longer, high-quality stems. This results in superior garden performance and exceptional cut-flower potential.

Important Update for SA, NSW, ACT & QLD Customers

Due to updated Government biosecurity requirements, all orders containing potted plants must now undergo treatment and inspection for Tomato Potato Psyllid (TPP) prior to dispatch.

As this process has recently been introduced, some orders may experience slightly longer processing times while these procedures are implemented and streamlined during early 2026.

We kindly ask customers in the affected states to allow additional time for dispatch. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your understanding.

QLD Orders

To meet treatment and inspection scheduling, orders must be placed by 12pm Friday to be shipped the following Tuesday. Orders received after this time will be dispatched the subsequent week.

A $5.00 quarantine inspection surcharge applies to orders delivered to QLD to cover the additional inspection and compliance requirements.
