Description: A vigorous, evergreen bottlebrush cultivar with dense, arching foliage and prolific, bright red inflorescences that attract nectar-feeding birds and insects. Displays extended flowering across spring and summer with occasional sporadic blooms at other times in warm climates. Its compact, bushy habit suits informal hedging, wildlife gardens, and specimen planting where long-season colour is desired.
