Callistemon spp. (‘Hot Pink’, ‘Inferno’): characteristics and care
Callistemon spp. (‘Hot Pink’, ‘Inferno’), popularly known as bottlebrush, includes different ornamental varieties of Callistemon selected for their particularly showy flowering, in intense pink and fire red tones, which stand out against their narrow and evergreen foliage.
Their compact and branched shape, along with their prolonged flowering, make them a very decorative option both for flowerbeds and for isolated specimens in Mediterranean gardens.
They tolerate drought well once established and adapt to poor soils, provided they have good drainage.
At Ornacom we cultivate each specimen directly, guaranteeing a balanced size and vigorous development from the first years of planting.
