Waterhousia floribunda 'Amaroo' (Weeping Lilly Pilly) is a graceful Australian native cultivar prized for its elegant weeping habit and lush, dense foliage. Its pendulous branches are covered in glossy, dark green leaves that create a beautiful cascading effect, making it an excellent choice for screening, hedging, or as a striking feature tree in larger landscapes. This selected form offers improved vigour and a more consistent weeping shape compared to the species.
Well-suited to subtropical and temperate climates, 'Amaroo' thrives in moist, well-drained soils and can tolerate periodic waterlogging. Its non-invasive root system and adaptability to various conditions make it suitable for urban planting. While it produces small white flowers, it is primarily grown for its exceptional foliage and elegant form that provides year-round interest.
