Brachychiton rupestris

The Brachychiton rupestris, popularly known as the Queensland bottle tree (Brachychiton rupestris), is a deciduous tree native to Australia that stands out for its characteristic swollen bottle-shaped trunk, capable of storing large water reserves, and its light canopy of lanceolate leaves.

Its sculptural trunk, available both as a wire-balled root ball and as bare root, makes it a high-character piece for designer gardens and spaces seeking a unique, low-maintenance element.

It tolerates extreme drought very well once established, thanks to the water storage capacity of its trunk; it adapts to poor soils with good drainage.

At Ornacom, we specialize in the import and commercialization of these types of unique specimens, ensuring their proper acclimation and handling.
