Bring a touch of the exotic to your garden or patio with the Callistemon laevis, a sun-worshipping evergreen celebrated for its vibrant, cylindrical flower spikes, all dressed up with long tufts of crimson stamens. This majestic plant boasts dark green, slender foliage that not only adds interest during the winter months but also releases a lovely lemon scent when you give them a gentle rub.
Callistemon laevis thrives in sunny spots with good drainage, making it just the thing for planting against a warm wall or in pots on sunny patios or roof terraces.
