Leptospermum brachyandrum 'Silver' (Silver Weeping Tea Tree)

Leptospermum brachyandrum 'Silver' (Silver Weeping Tea Tree) is a graceful Australian native tree or large shrub prized for its elegant weeping habit and striking silver-grey foliage. This cultivar features slender, pendulous branches covered in narrow, silvery leaves that create a soft, shimmering effect in the landscape. In spring and summer, it produces small, white flowers along the branches, adding to its ornamental appeal and providing a nectar source for pollinators.

Ideal as a feature tree, for screening, or in coastal gardens, the Silver Weeping Tea Tree thrives in well-drained soils and full sun. It is highly drought-tolerant once established and tolerates coastal conditions, including salt spray. This low-maintenance tree is particularly valued for its year-round visual interest, fast growth rate, and ability to provide a beautiful contrast in garden designs.
