Callistemon Adina is a dense upright evergreen shrub with a rounded habit growing to about 2m.
It has broad stiff, mid green lanceolate leaves. The new leaf growth is a lovely bronze-pink with a soft velvety feel.
From mid to late spring it is covered with masses of red dense cylindrical spikes of bottlebrush flowers. In autumn some flowers are produced but not the same number as in spring.
Plant in full sun in an open position to maximise the number of flowers and density of the plant.
It is a medium growing and tough plant. It is able to tolerate 2nd line salt, wind, drought, frost and even pollution.
As with most Callistemons, this one is easily grown and will attract bird life to your garden. It can be grown as a screen, hedge, and used as windbreaks.
