As a Gardens Editor, this is the flowering filler plant I recommend to anyone looking for stunning late winter blooms

Flowering Grevillea 'Coastal Gem' growing in a pot on a patio in a garden.

Back home on the east coast of England, there's a flowering plant that wows me every single winter: Grevillea.

The variety I have is called 'Coastal Gem', and it's a very fitting name for a hardy evergreen that thrives in challenging conditions. It's one of my favourite winter-flowering shrubs, and it bursts into bloom around January until late spring. It's a low-growing evergreen shrub that works brilliantly as a filler plant for borders or a statement in a pot.
