PLANT PROFILE

Callistemon citrinus x viminalis 'KPS' is a resilient Australian native hybrid with dense foliage and eye-catching red bottlebrush flowers from spring through late summer. It attracts native birds and pollinators while providing structure and colour in a wide range of garden settings.

They look excellent when mass planted for hedging or used as a feature in bird-friendly landscapes. Callistemon citrinus x viminalis 'KPS' handles drought, light frost, and saline conditions once established, making it a dependable choice for low-maintenance native gardens, borders, and screens.


Mature Height: 3m - 5m Approximately

Mature Width: 2m – 3m

Approx. 50 – 80 cm per year

Hedging & Screening: Plant 1 m apart for a dense hedge, or slightly wider for a more informal look.

Feature Tree: Plant 1.5 m – 2 m apart to allow the tree to display its natural form.

Avenue Planting Trees: Suitable at 3 m – 4 m apart to form a loose avenue.
