Callistemon linearis

Display this exotic shrub on your patio, and it's sure to draw attention! Callistemon linearis has narrow evergreen leaves on woody stems that provide interest all year, but in summer it puts on a spectacular display of fiery red 'bottlebrush' flowers. They not only put on a vibrant display of colour, but they also attract bees and butterflies. Ideal for growing in a large container, you can enjoy it as an indoor or conservatory plant during the cool months, then bring it out to display on the patio in the summer. Height: 3m (10?). Spread: 4m (13?).
