A compact dwarf cultivar of the Australian Brush Cherry and adored for its dense, bushy growth and attractive foliage. It is particularly known for its small size, which makes it perfect for small gardens, courtyards, or as a potted plant. The lush, glossy green leaves and new growth that emerges in shades of bronze to red add vibrant colour throughout the year. While it flowers infrequently, when it does, it produces lovely white blooms followed by non-edible purple berries.
Care Considerations: | Regular watering is essential, especially during dry periods, to maintain its lush appearance. It responds well to regular pruning. A slow-release fertiliser can be applied to promote growth and maintain dense foliage. |
