Leptospermum Wiri Adriene

Common Name:
Wiri Adrienne Tea Tree

Description:
Leptospermum ‘Wiri Adrienne’ is a compact and highly ornamental evergreen shrub, celebrated for its profusion of soft pink, double flowers that create a delicate and romantic display in spring. The blooms are densely packed along the stems, forming a striking contrast against the fine, dark green foliage. Its naturally bushy and rounded habit makes it an excellent choice for hedging, borders, and feature planting in both formal and informal garden settings. Well suited to Melbourne conditions, it thrives in full sun to part shade and prefers well-drained soils. Once established, it is drought tolerant and relatively low maintenance, benefiting from light pruning after flowering to maintain a dense, tidy shape. The flowers are attractive to bees and pollinators, enhancing garden biodiversity while providing a soft, elegant aesthetic.
