Leptospermum Cardwell

Leptospermum Cardwell Details

Leptospermum Cardwell is a fast-growing shrub that produces stunning flowers off weeping stems. Masses of white flowers are borne in such proliferation they coat the plant through late winter and spring. They sit neatly amongst the fine and aromatic, mid-green foliage that is held with a pendulous manner. This evergreen typically grows to 1.2 m tall and 2.5 m wide and can be trimmed as necessary. It grows best when planted in full sun on a well-drained site, though will tolerate extended dry periods, heavy soils, frost, cool climates, and light shade. Leptospermum flavescens Cardwell is commonly included in a mixed planting, planted as backdrop for smaller plants, included in a “white” garden, or maintained in a container. The fine foliage and floriferous nature of this shrub makes it a fine addition to any garden.
