Callistemon citrinus

Callistemon citrinus, or crimson bottlebrush, features striking red brush-like flowers from spring to summer and aromatic, lemon-scented leaves. It attracts pollinators and can help improve air quality. Easy to care for, drought-tolerant but not frost-hardy, it suits beginners in warm climates. Ideal for sunny balconies, gardens, or as a patio plant; less suitable for bedrooms due to its strong scent. Grows moderately fast with regular watering and light pruning. Non-toxic to humans and pets, making it safe for family environments.
