Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I bought this plant as "Australian Tea Tree" about 10 years ago. It's absolutely beautiful. It has dark green, needle-like leaves, tiny dark red flowers with black centers and is light and lacy, not dense. It has survived the heat and humidity; near drought conditions [I water by hose when I can.]; the light freezes we normally have; and even some more extended heavy freezes, as well. I planted it in the 'L' by the door of our brick house when I first got it. One year, it's top branch had grown past the eaves of the house, and I lost that branch to a heavy freeze, but other than that, it's been totally happy. It does not get special attention, but doesn't seem to need it, either. I bought a second one with pink flowers a couple of years later, but it did not make it through the first winter. The only difference in it's care was that it was planted in the middle of the same flower bed; not in the more protected corner. I guess that means that it could use a little winter protection here in zone 8 Myrtle Beach, S.C. I bought a plant; about 8-9 inches tall; and it is about 12 feet tall this year; slightly above the eaves, again. It is still one of my favorite plants. [I apologize if my review comes up twice; I think I lost the first one.]
