Leucospermum reflexum as a whole is recorded as having a threatened status of NT (near threatened) at present These plants come from the winter rainfall region where temperatures can soar to well over 30°C in summer and drop below zero in winter, so they can be grown in most areas as long as the soil is well drained and on the acid side, and they receive water during the winter months. They can tolerate a fair bit of cold and can even tolerate some frost. They will not, however, grow in areas which are hot and humid, as they are very prone to fungal problems under these conditions.
