Attractive Flowers That Support Wildlife

Leptospermum scoparium blooms profusely in spring and summer with delicate white to pink flowers that fill your garden with fragrance. These nectar-rich blossoms attract native bees and birds, supporting biodiversity while adding seasonal interest to your outdoor space.

Strong Growth and Versatile Uses

Growing up to 2–3 meters tall with a dense, bushy habit, Mānuka is an excellent choice for hedging, screening, or as a striking specimen shrub. It adapts well to coastal and inland environments, making it suitable for a wide variety of New Zealand gardens.

Easy Care for NZ Conditions

This hardy shrub thrives in well-drained soils and tolerates drought once established. It also withstands wind and coastal exposure with minimal pruning required. A light trim after flowering keeps the plant neat and encourages healthy new growth.
