For a hedge or screening plant, Protea 'Pink Ice' is ideal. It grows 3 to 4 metres high and needs to be pruned regularly to keep it compact for this purpose. Cut the stem about 20 cm below the flower and the plant will shoot new growth out from this point, as well as having the bonus of the flowers for a vase.
