While the 'Reeves Pink' cultivar has been bred for ornamental use, the Callistemon species are native to Australia and typically found in a wide range of habitats from wetlands to woodland areas. | |
Leaf information: | Narrow, dark green leaves |
Preferred Soil: | Adapts well to a wide range of soil types but prefers a well draining soil. It's relatively tolerant of both slightly acidic and slightly alkaline pH levels. |
Reeves Pink has a stunning display of pink brush-like flowers that attracts a host of birds and beneficial insects to the garden. Its compact size, prolific blooms and resilience to environmental stresses, including drought and poor soil conditions, make this a versatile and low maintenance option for the garden.
Care Considerations: | Relatively drought-tolerant once established, regular watering is not required. Pruning after flowering can encourage a denser growth pattern and encourage more vigorous blooms the following season. Fertilising is generally not required, however a slow-release, low-phosphorus fertilizer prior to bloom can help promote healthier growth and flowering. |
