2. INTRODUCTION
Callistemon species are commonly referred to
as bottlebrushes because of their cylindrical,
brush like flowers resembling a traditional
bottle brush.
Callistemons can be propagated either
by cuttings (some species more easily than
others), or from the rounded seeds.

3. • The obvious parts of the flower masses
are stamens, with the pollen at the tip of the
filament; the petals are inconspicuous.
• Flower heads vary in colour with species;
most are red, but some are yellow, green,
orange or white.
• In India, bottlebrush plants/trees are grown in
gardens. Their leaves have a lovely fragrance
which gets released on crushing the leaves
with hands.

4. • Each flower head produces a profusion of
triple-celled seed capsules around a stem
which remain on the plant with the seeds
enclosed until stimulated to open when the
plant dies or fire causes the release of the
seeds. (A few species release the seeds
annually.)

6. CLIMATE
• They are found in the more temperate regions of
Australia, mostly along the east coast and south-
west, and typically favour moist conditions so
when planted in gardens thrive on regular
watering. However, at least some of the species
are drought-resistant.
• Flowering is normally in spring and
early summer(October–December), but
conditions may cause flowering at other times of
the year.
