Leptospermum 'Burgundy Queen'

This is one of the most attractive ornamental shrubs in our nursery when it is in bloom. 'Burgundy Queen' flowers in early spring and fall, then carries on the rest of the year as a dense, evergreen shrub with red-purple foliage. It can grow up to 12 feet high by 10 feet wide and prefers full sun. It is fairly adaptable to a variety of soils and becomes drought tolerant once established.
