Product Details
Overview & Specifications
Kings Park Special Bottlebrush Callistemon 'Kings Park Special'
A proven performer in Australian landscapes, 'Kings Park Special' delivers bold crimson flower spikes and dense, evergreen foliage with the structural confidence expected of advanced stock. At specimen size, it commands attention immediately, no establishment period required to make an impact.
Why Kings Park Special
Floral Impact: Prolific deep crimson bottlebrush spikes, typically spring and autumn, with reliable repeat flowering across the season.
Evergreen Structure: Dense, lush foliage provides year-round screening and visual mass without seasonal gaps.
Climate Resilience: Tolerates drought, coastal conditions, and heavy clay soils once established, built for the Australian environment.
Wildlife Value: A proven attractor of honeyeaters and native pollinators, adding ecological credibility to prestige projects.
Low Maintenance Profile: Minimal intervention required post-establishment, reducing long-term landscape maintenance costs.
Ideal Applications
Screening & Hedging: Dense habit makes it a superior choice for boundary definition and privacy screening on residential and commercial properties.
Feature Planting: Specimen placement in high-visibility zones where immediate colour and form are required.
Coastal Landscapes: Strong tolerance for wind exposure and salt-laden air suits beachside and waterfront projects.
Native & Naturalistic Schemes: Integrates seamlessly into curated native plantings designed by landscape architects seeking authentic Australian character.
Specimen & Installation
Spacing (screening/hedge): 2 to 3m

Soil & Drainage: Adaptable to most soils including clay and sandy loams; tolerates poor drainage and periodic waterlogging but performs best in well-drained conditions
