Metrosideros 'Spring Fire'
Metrosideros ‘Spring Fire’ is a compact and highly floriferous New Zealand native pohutukawa cultivar valued for its brilliant red spring flowers and glossy evergreen foliage. Flowering earlier than many other varieties, it brings vibrant colour to NZ gardens at a time when few trees are in bloom. This selection remains smaller and tidier than standard pohutukawa. Metrosideros ‘Spring Fire’ is hardy, wind tolerant, and ideal for low maintenance landscapes.
