Leptospermum Keatleyii

Leptospermum Keatleyii Details

Leptospermum Keatleyii is a fast growing, small shrub that produces masses of large and showy, single, pink flowers with a dark centre from late winter through into spring. The foliage consists of finely pointed, mid green leaves which gives off a pleasant fragrance on warm days. This evergreen shrub typically grows to 1.5 m tall and 1 m wide, performing best when planted in full sun or partial shade on a well-drained site. This hardy plant will survive dry periods, coastal conditions, and a wide range of soil conditions barring the extremes of wet and dry. Leptospermum Keatleyii is commonly included in a mixed planting, maintained in a container, planted around outdoor living areas, mass planted on a bank or the like for a stunning display, or trimmed into a hedge. For hedging space plants 30 cm apart.
