Callistemon Mauve Mist is a hardy Australian native shrub admired for its unique mauve to purple bottlebrush-style flowers. Blooming mainly in spring and summer (September to February), the flowers create a soft contrast against its narrow, lance-shaped green foliage. This variety provides colour, texture, and nectar for birds and pollinators.
Compact and adaptable, Callistemon Mauve Mist is ideal for hedging, screening, or feature planting. Its resilience to a wide range of soils and conditions makes it a reliable choice for both home gardens and larger landscapes.
