Leptospermum Cardwell
Gracefully weeping aromatic evergreen foliage, covered in white flowers late winter to spring. Grows in shade, but will flower less.
Lovely as a vigorous native hedge in most locations, including cool climates, where the cascading branches will add movement. You can see our nursery bushes in the images, after hard pruning, rounded in shape.
