Commonly known as Bottlebrush, is a genus of hardy, evergreen Australian native shrubs or small trees famous for their unique, brush-like flowers (usually red, pink, or white) that attract birds and bees, thriving in sunny spots, well-drained soil, and tolerating coastal/dry conditions, making them popular for gardens and hedging. They are low-maintenance, benefit from pruning after flowering to maintain shape, and offer year-round foliage.
