Slim™ Callistemon provides landscape professionals and homeowners with a bottlebrush solution for tight planting areas. A large number of flower buds develop in spring and will open to classic bottlebrush throughout spring, summer and later again in autumn. Has been tested down to -6 degrees Celsius with no leaf burn, this is excellent for a Callistemon.
Uses: Screen, hedge or feature for tight planting areas.
Position: Full sun to part shade. Suits most soil types. Tolerates drought and frost.
Care: Water as required for 8-13 weeks until established. Plant in a well mulched garden (chunky mulch is recommended). If required use slow release fertiliser in spring. If desired prune to shape 1-3 times a year after flowering (this depends on your requirements, more frequent pruning will provide a tidier hedge/shape).
