Why we love this plant!
The Pink Bottlebrush is a wildlife-friendly native shrub that produces striking pink flowers, attracting a wide range of birds, bees, and pollinators. Its dense growth habit provides valuable shelter and habitat for native species, supporting local biodiversity. Thriving in coastal and inland environments, it is a low-maintenance and resilient choice for gardens across South East Queensland, from Brisbane to the Sunshine Coast.
Care Considerations
Care Considerations
Watering preferences:
- Once established, drought tolerant, but deep watering in dry periods may encourage more flowering.
Mulching preferences:
- Applying mulch around the base may help retain moisture and suppress weeds.
Fertilising preferences:
- While not necessary, a slow-release, low-phosphorus fertiliser may support healthy growth and flowering.
Pruning preferences:
- Pruning after flowering may encourage a denser growth habit and more flowers in the following season.
Good to Know:
- Hardy and adaptable to a range of conditions, including coastal areas.
