Faster-growing melicope (euodia) with darker red-pink flowers along the branches, and a straighter-growing habit. Native birds love the nectar-rich blossoms, which you can enjoy too even while the tree is very young. Well-behaved adaptable variety ideal for frost-free suburban gardens.
Melicope rubra 'Blush' - red euodia
DESCRIPTION: Australian native with evergreen foliage and clusters of butterfly and bird attracting pink-red flowers. M. rubra 'Blush' has darker flowers than M.elleryana and a straighter habit, with a little more resilience to urban garden conditions.USE IN: Plant as a feature or screening tree, plants have a shallow root system making them them ideal for street-scaping.
