Melaleuca hypericifolia (Red Flowering Bottlebrush)

Melaleuca hypericifolia is a striking Australian native shrub known for its weeping habit, papery bark, and vibrant red to orange bottlebrush-style flower clusters. The dense flowering occurs on older wood, often creating a dramatic display of colour that is partially hidden within the foliage.

Ideal for feature planting, screening, and wildlife gardens, this hardy species attracts birds and pollinators while adding strong texture and seasonal impact. Its evergreen foliage and long-lasting seed capsules provide year-round structural interest in the landscape.
