Grower's Notes:
Dwarf Bottlebrush should be grown in full sun, preferably in moist, well-drained soil. Be sure the soil drains well as roots often rot in wet soil.

Although drought-tolerant, best flowering and growth is obtained with regular moisture and fertilization. The flowers attract butterflies and hummingbirds!

Dwarf Bottlebrush is suitable to use as a lawn specimen or as a low hedge.
