Callistemon John Mashlan

How to grow Callistemon John Mashlan

To grow Callistemon 'John Mashlan', select a full sun location with well-drained soil, as this plant thrives with ample sunlight and good drainage. Enrich the soil with organic compost before planting to promote healthy root development. Water regularly during the first year to help the plant establish, then reduce watering as it matures, since it becomes highly drought-tolerant. Light pruning after flowering encourages a dense, compact shape and more prolific blooming in the next season. Feed with a low-phosphorus, slow-release fertiliser for Australian natives in early spring to support strong growth and vibrant flowering. Mulch around the base to retain moisture and suppress weeds, but avoid piling mulch against the stem to prevent rot. 'John Mashlan' typically grows into a medium-sized shrub with rich crimson-red bottlebrush flowers, making it ideal for use as a feature plant, informal screen, or wildlife-attracting garden addition.
