Bee present
Bird Attracting
Hey there, glad you could stop by and connect with me! I am known botanically as Corymbia ficifolia - Mini Red but you can call me beautiful!
I have the most amazing flower that delights both passersby, native birds and bees of many varieties. I am a native with extraordinary talents as I not only look great in your garden, but both my flowers and foliage are often used in floral scultures & displays.
So let me share how to care for me and the land around you:
* Common name - Flowering gum * Approximate Width - 2 metres
* Approximate Width - 2 metres * I love full sun
* Soil - please plant me in well drained, but I adapt to most soil types
* I am frost sensitive
* I love native fertiliser after I have finished flowering
* I am happy to be pruned for shaping once I have finished flowering.
* Remember To mulch around my base to help me retain moisture.
