I am Bottlebrush Candy Burst™. My family originated from Australia
| I am a beautiful bottlebrush with a semi-compact habit and elegant fine foliage producing prolific dark pink bottle brush flowers in spring.
Low maintenance I benefit from a light prune to shape every 2 to 3 years. I make a great feature plant in a large pot or planter or planted out in the garden. My compact habit makes me a great choice for a low maintenance hedge. My blooms attract birds and other nectar feeding wildlife and my form provides excellent habitat. Hardy and adaptable I happily tolerate light frost and dry conditions while still being a good choice for heavy soils that are occasionally waterlogged. |
