Callistemon 'Red Rocket' 17cm pot

Introducing 'Red Rocket', the latest and the best colourful and compact hedge! The Weeping Bottlebrush is a Mediterranean revolution and a new version of the much-loved bottlebrush plant. But what is so special about 'Red Rocket' you ask? An eruption of bright red foliage lasting three months - from spring into summer each year.

Lemon-scented and evergreen foliage, this is the perfect compact hedge, and an exciting alternative to the widely grown Photinia 'Red Robin'. Drought and frost resistant, this 'Aussie' classic is perfect for the borders, but just as dramatic in pots too!

'Red Rocket' can be grown as a hedge or a shrub. Incredibly impactful, and more compact in growth than Photinia. It thrives in sunny, well-drained spots and handles drought and light frost with ease. That means no pampering required - just plant, water occasionally, and enjoy! Whether in borders, beds, or decorative patio containers, 'Red Rocket' adds year-round structure, texture, and bursts of colour, making it a versatile choice for any space.

If you want a garden showstopper that works hard with little fuss, Callistemon 'Red Rocket' is the plant for you. Low maintenance and strikingly beautiful, it's time to give your garden a fiery boost.

Supplied as an established plant in a 17cm pot, ready to plant.
