Rice Flower Red Gingham (Ozothamnus 'Red Gingham')

Red Gingham covers itself in clusters of tiny red buds that open to white rice-like flowers - a checkerboard effect that gives this tough Australian native its name. Florists prize it; pollinators adore it.

🌱 Why Gardeners Love Rice Flower Red Gingham

✔ Two-tone flower show - red buds and white blooms held together in dense heads through spring and summer.

✔ Cut flower classic - rice flower stems are a staple of Australian floristry and dry beautifully.

✔ Fine evergreen foliage - neat, aromatic leaves on a bushy shrub to around 1-1.5m.

✔ Pollinator magnet - native bees, hoverflies and butterflies work the flower heads constantly.

✔ Waterwise and hardy - takes drought, wind and light frost in its stride.

🏡 How to Use Rice Flower Red Gingham in Your Garden

✅ Cutting garden - grow a row purely for picking; stems last weeks fresh or dried.

✅ Native cottage borders - mixes beautifully with paws, daisies and grevilleas.

✅ Informal low screens - plant in groups for a soft, flowering divider.

Easy Planting & Care Guide

  • Position: Full sun with free-draining soil; raised beds or slopes in heavier ground.
  • Spacing: 80cm-1m apart in groups; the 140mm pack of ten fills a picking row in one go.
  • Best Planting Time: Autumn or spring.
  • Watering & Care: Weekly water while establishing, then only in extended dry spells. Prune by a third after flowering to keep it compact and productive.

❔ FAQs About Rice Flower Red Gingham

How do I dry the flowers?
Cut stems when heads are still in tight bud, strip the lower leaves and hang upside down in a dry, airy spot for two to three weeks.

Does it need much pruning?
One good trim after flowering is enough. Regular picking through the season does most of the shaping for you.

Will it handle coastal gardens?
Yes - it tolerates salt-laden wind well once established, making it a good pick for seaside cutting gardens.
