Copper-Coloured Foliage and White Flowers

Leptospermum Copper Glow features narrow-elliptic to narrow-oblanceolate leaves, mostly dark green, with bronze-copper coloured foliage produced on all young shoots, creating a dramatic foliage contrast. It produces small, white flowers in spring and summer, which are great for attracting bees. The plant gives off a pleasant fragrance year-round, which tends to be stronger on warm days.

Compact Size and Robust Growth Habit

This evergreen shrub typically grows to 2.5 metres tall and 1.5 metres wide when planted in full sun. In shaded conditions, it will produce an open plant with reduced flowering. It is well-suited for hedging, screening, or as a backdrop for smaller plants.

Low Maintenance and Hardy NZ Native

Leptospermum Copper Glow tolerates drought, poorer drained sites, frost, and cool climates. It is commonly included in mixed plantings, used for screening and shelter, trimmed into a hedge, or planted to attract native fauna.
