Callistemon’s grow best in full sunlight but can tolerate part shade as well. They are easy to grow from cuttings, and you can start one from just one leaf. For optimal growth they need well drained soil with plenty of organic matter added before being planted into garden beds or containers.

When Callistemon’s are not producing flowers, they should be pruned back regularly in the growing season so they look tidy while still giving off their attractive smell that attracts bees.

Callistemon produces a lemon citrus scent, making it the ideal specimen plant or patio accent. Growing to approximately one meter tall and even winter hardy, Callistemon requires no upkeep in any size garden.
