Leptospermum 'Rudolph' 14cm

Leptospermum Rudolph

"Rudolph' is a fast growing medium to tall shrub that grows 2-3 metres tall and 1.5-2 metres wide. It is hardy in most areas and tolerates wet conditions. It has attractive purplish new growth and large red flowers. Flowering commences in December and may continue through Christmas.

USES: The appealing leaf colour and growth habit, make this plant ideal for screens, hedges, or low wind breaks. In summer, when many other shrubs have finished flowering, 'Rudolph' comes into bloom and provides colour for the festive season. If space allows, group planting will offer a superb display.

CARE: Fertilise regularly to encourage new growth. Prune as required in late summer.
