Tickled Pink Teatree 200MM

Leptospermum polygalifolium x 'Rhiannon'x‘Cardwell’ 'Tickled Pink'

I am Tickled Pink Teatree. My family originated from Australia.

Habit Shrub
Plant family Myrtaceae
I am literally a mass of pink flowers in spring making me a great feature plant. I am a hardy Australian native that thrives in most free draining soils. I make a great screening hedge and respond well to pruning to shape best done after flowering to ensure prolific flowering in the next season. My flowers are a rich source of nectar for bees and beneficial insects.
I am popular and will make you happy because...
I am completely covered in vibrant pink blooms in spring creating an impressive display
My size and form suits me to be a very attractive hedge or screen
I am ideal for native or coastal gardens and will attract bees and beneficial insects to your garden
