“The Bottlebrush Tree, scientifically known as *Callistemon* or *Melaleuca citrina*, is a striking evergreen native to Australia. It gets its name from its vibrant, cylindrical flower spikes that resemble a traditional bottle brush. These flowers, typically red but sometimes pink or yellow, bloom in spring and summer and are rich in nectar, attracting birds, butterflies, and bees.

This tree features slender, lance-shaped leaves that often release a lemony scent when crushed. It thrives in sunny locations and adapts well to various soil types, including damp or flood-prone areas. With its resilience to drought and minimal maintenance needs, the Bottlebrush Tree is a popular choice for ornamental landscaping and garden hedges.”
