Leptospermum Copper Glow

Common Name: Tea Tree 'Copper Glow'

Description:
Leptospermum 'Copper Glow' is a striking Australian native tea tree, valued for its attractive copper-bronze new growth that matures to deep green, creating year-round visual appeal. This fast-growing, dense shrub produces an abundance of small, delicate white flowers in spring, attracting bees and other pollinators. Hardy and drought-tolerant once established, 'Copper Glow' thrives in full sun to part shade and adapts well to a variety of soil types, provided they are well-drained. Its dense foliage makes it an excellent choice for hedging, screening, or as a feature plant in native and coastal gardens. Low-maintenance and resilient, it is also tolerant of frost and windy conditions.
