Melaleuca hypericifolia

Description

Ornamental shrub,  with bright green leaves and showy terracotta flowers appearing in early summer. Tolerant of most well-drained soils and situations. Foliage damaged by moderate frost. Excellent screen or windbreak as plants respond to pruning. Attracts hummingbirds and makes an excellent cut foliage. Recent low winter temps 16F did not damage this melaleuca in a protected position at the nursery.
