Callistemon viminalis 'Macarthur'

Description

Great compact Callistemon with bright red flowers most of the year. Very hardy to heat and frost. Low water requirements once established. A hybrid between Callistemon 'Little John' x Callistemon 'Captain Cook' with improved characteristics in that it establishes faster than C. 'Little John' and produces a deeper red flower over a longer period. Bushy compact habit and responds well to pruning. It can be grown in full sun or partial shade and will tolerate most soil conditions.
