Plant life cycle:

Perennial

Habitat:

A cultivated variety, Metrosideros 'Fiji Fire' does not have a naturally occurring habitat. The parent species, Metrosideros excelsa, is native to New Zealand, where the plant is typically found in volcanic soils, coastal areas, forest settings and mountainous regions.

Leaf information:

Glossy, dark green leaves

Preferred Soil:

Prefers slightly dry to moist conditions with well-drained soils

This compact, bushy shrub produces vibrant red, bottlebrush-like flowers that contrast beautifully against its glossy green foliage. The blooms are highly attractive to birds and pollinators, and its manageable size makes it ideal for smaller gardens, borders, or container planting. The fiery red flowers bring year-round interest and brighten up any garden.

Care Considerations:

Requires moderate watering and becomes drought-tolerant once established. Applying organic mulch helps retain moisture and suppress weeds. Fertilisation is minimal, but a light feed with a balanced fertiliser during the growing season will support vigorous growth. Light pruning after flowering is recommended to maintain shape and promote bushier growth.
