Kanga® Burgundy - Anigozanthos

Kanga® Burgundy is a compact kangaroo paw with dark purple-red, velvety flowers above bright green, strap-like foliage. The UC Davis Arboretum nursery inventory identifies it with the Bush Series and describes flowering from spring into fall, making it useful for a long season of color in compact plantings. ## Growing Conditions Choose a sunny position with freely draining soil. The UC Davis listing describes the plant at about 2 feet tall and recommends low to medium water during its bloom season. Devil Mountain Wholesale Nursery describes the broader Kanga series as evergreen and about 1–2 feet tall; that series-level size is context rather than a precise cultivar measurement. ## Seasonal Interest The UC Davis inventory reports dark purple-red flowers from spring through fall and bright green leaves. The compact form suits borders, containers, and grouped plantings where the flowers and leaf texture can be seen up close. ## Maintenance Prevent persistently wet soil and remove old flower stems after bloom.
