Leptospermum 'Lemon Frost'

Leptospermum 'Lemon Frost' is a fast-growing shrub that produces stunning flowers off semi-weeping stems. Masses of white flowers are borne in such a proliferation that they coat the plant through late winter and spring. They sit neatly amongst the delicate and lemon-scented, mid-green foliage that is held with a pendulous manner as it grows to 1.5 m tall and 2 m wide. Leptospermum 'Lemon Frost' is commonly included in a mixed planting, planted as a backdrop for smaller plants, contained in a “white” garden, or maintained in a container. The delicate foliage and floriferous nature of this shrub make it a fine addition to any garden.
