Callistemon pallidus or the Lemon Bottlebrush is a popular ornamental shrub and is useful as a featured specimen or as a screen.
it is upright in form, with spreading branches that are quite slender and mid-green tapered leaves that are hairy when young. The flowers are profuse, cylindrical shaped, up to 100mm long and a vibrant lemon yellow colour, often covering the entire shrub with colour from spring through to summer. Cup shaped seed capsules mature from the spent flower-heads, each containing many fine seeds.
