Callistemon citrinus pallidus Hot Pink

Flowering with hot pink Bottlebrush like flowers on the terminal shoots and branches in spring, Hot Pink will give to the sunny garden a flower colour in Callistemons not seen before. Australian native plants are suited to our landscapes with their better use of available water are deserving of more use in our gardens. Hot Pink suits the smaller areas we have in our gardens of today as it is compact and not too tall. Honey eating birds, bees and other insects are attracted in large numbers during the flowering season. In future, native gardens will not seem complete without plants of Hot Pink bottlebrush. Planted singly or in rows they will impress with their clean upright growth to 1.5m by 1m wide in most situations. The foliage and stems are always attractive and indeed make good fillers in floral arrangements. If planted into a large pot one would need to take real care that the soil never dried out
