Common Name: Tea Tree
Leptospermum are aromatic evergreen shrubs or small trees with small, often silky leaves and 5-petalled flowers in late spring and summer. If growing in a pot use ericaceous soil.
| Soil: | Ericaceous Soil |
| Aspect: | Full sun / sheltered |
| Max Height: | 2.5m - 4m |
| Extra Info: | Shelter from cold, drying winds The soil need not be particularly fertile or good. Thinner coastal (ericaceous) soils are ideal. It is wind chill rather than frost which can often kill leptospermums. Sloping ground which does not freeze is another plus. Avoid waterlogged wet areas. |
