Callistemon Perth Pink 200MM

Callistemon Perth Pink

I am Callistemon Perth Pink. My family originated from Australia.

Habit Shrub - Bird and bee attracting

Plant family Myrtaceae

My deep pink flowers create stunning impact and are borne in clusters at the ends of the branches mainly in spring and autumn but I can flower sporadically at other times of the year. I am a tall compact shrub suited to colourful screening to 4m with fine lance shaped leaves to 80mm long. While I will do best in a well-drained soil I am reliable in most soils including boggy ones. My nectar rich blooms attract birds and beneficial insects to the garden. I can be pruned to shape after flowering if desired.

I am popular and will make you happy because...
