PLANT PROFILE

Callistemon salignus – commonly called the White Bottlebrush or Willow Bottlebrush – is a striking Australian native with soft pink to white cylindrical flowers and elegant, willow-like foliage. Young leaves emerge with a flush of pink-red before maturing to green, creating seasonal contrast.

They look excellent when planted as informal screens, hedging, or as feature trees in bird-attracting landscapes. Callistemon salignus performs well in full sun to part shade, tolerates mild frost and drought once established, and adds structure and biodiversity to gardens and streetscapes with minimal upkeep.

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

Avenue Planting Trees: Use at 3 m – 4 m apart for a uniform row.

How to Plant Callistemon salignus

  1. Site Selection: Choose a location with ample sunlight and well-draining soil.
  2. Soil Preparation: Incorporate organic matter or compost to boost soil health.
  3. Hole Digging: Prepare a hole about double the size of the root ball.
  4. Planting: Set the Callistemon in the hole, ensuring it's level, fill with soil, and water deeply.

Use this as a reference when digging your planting hole. We recommend digging at least 10% wider than the dimensions below to encourage strong root development.
