Subsequently, one may also ask, is bottle brush plant evergreen?
The bottle brush is an evergreen tree or shrub with light drooping grace, height to twenty feet.
Also question is, do bottle brush trees lose their leaves?
Bottle brush trees and shrubs (Callistemon spp.) suffer few problems, so dry or dead leaves are a cause for concern. Most varieties of these flowering plants grow in U.S. Department of Agriculture plant hardiness zones 9 through 11, although some types grow in USDA zone 8.
Callistemon will grow to about 1m tall, is extremely drought tolerant and is even winter hardy to -5C in the UK making it a fantastic low maintenance plant for any size garden. Supplied as an established 3 year old plant in a 2.5L pot approx. 50-60cm tall already, ready to plant out or re-pot.
