Callistemon laevis:

features and care

Callistemon laevis, popularly known as bottlebrush, is a perennial shrub native to Australia that stands out for its striking, bright red, brush-shaped flower spikes that appear mainly in spring and summer.

Its narrow, evergreen foliage, along with its compact, branching habit, makes it a versatile choice for both low hedges and as a standalone specimen in Mediterranean gardens. It tolerates drought well once established and adapts to poor soils, provided they are well-drained.

At Ornacom we cultivate each specimen directly, guaranteeing a balanced size and abundant flowering from the first year of planting.
