LEPTOSPERMUM COPPERSHEEN SHINY TEA TREE in new zealand

LEPTOSPERMUM COPPERSHEEN - SHINY TEA TREE

An attractive foliage tree with bronze leaves which give a light, soft appearance. It is hardy in most conditions with a straight and tall growth habit. Fast growing and drought tolerant, it can be pruned to shape and clips well to form a dense hedge- shaped specimen tree. Reddish stems and bronze leaves create an impressive show while the white flower smothers the plant for added extra colour. Avoid planting in wet areas.
