We will pick the best Metrosideros shrub at the time of dispatch. Varieties include Tahiti, Crimson Glory or Silver Glory which ever is the best at the time. Closely related to the native Pohutukawa it also has beautiful vibrant orange/red flowers that bloom from midwinter through spring, so provides colour in the garden when you need it. This is from the Islands and is a stunning choice for both coastal and inland gardens. These Metrosideros are more compact form that grows to about 1 metre. This species also stands more frost than others.
This plant comes in gift box and includes a gift card personalised with your message.
