You Garden Yougarden Callistemon Bottlebrush Plant (Approximately 30Cm Incl. Pot). Bottle Brush Plant Shrub. Perfect As Patio Plants

Who could resist touching the fluffy red cylindrical flower heads that drip from the branches of this evergreen shrub during late spring and summer? This native of Australia has more going for it than just its striking qualities, with tiny leaves that cover its arching branches, releasing a delicious lemony scent when bruised. Arching branches provide all year-round interest, wherever you plant it, perfect as a specimen in the lawn, grown against a wall or fence, or planted in large pots. A real sun lover, give it the brightest spot possible. You need to water the bottlebrush for its first season, but when established, plants are extremely drought-tolerant. Protect it in harder winters by covering with fleece or grow in pots so it can be moved indoors, as a shed, front porch, garage, or conservatory would be ideal. Supplied as an established plant in a 2L pot, approximately 30cm tall, ready to plant.
