Leptospermum liversidgei ‘Mozzie Blocker’ is a compact Australian native shrub prized for its strongly aromatic foliage and naturally dense growth habit. The fine green foliage releases a refreshing citrus scent when brushed, while masses of small white flowers appear seasonally, attracting beneficial pollinators to the garden. Its tidy form and fragrant foliage make it a popular choice for patios, pathways, and outdoor entertaining areas.
This hardy and low-maintenance shrub is especially valued for its use in sensory and lifestyle gardens, where its aromatic oils are traditionally associated with helping deter mosquitoes. Suitable for hedging, borders, containers, and native landscapes, ‘Mozzie Blocker’ performs well in a variety of climates and soil types once established. Its compact habit and year-round evergreen foliage provide both ornamental appeal and practical garden value.
