An upright growing shrub with slender spreading branches grows to a height of 3 m by 2 m across. The fresh lemon coloured bottlebrush flowers present an attractive contrast to the grey-green foliage during summer.
Native to Victoria and Tasmania.
Prefers a light to medium soil in a moist protected position, frost resistant but drought tender.
Note: A paper by Lyn Craven of the Australian National Herbarium in 2006 argues that the differences between the genera Callistemon and Melaleuca are insufficient to warrant them being retained separately and that they should be combined. As Melaleuca has precedence some Australian state herbaria use the name Melaleuca pallida.
