Leptospermum Tui has gorgeous colourful flowers through the winter and into spring, New Zealand native manuka plants are hardy and attractive. Leptospermum Tui is great for attracting bees. Leptospermums grow well in New Zealand conditions which other plants may struggle coping well with clay soils, frost, coastal conditions and other extremes. Prefers full sun and will tolerate drier conditions once established. Hardy to frost and poor soils. If sooty mould develops spray with copper fungicide mixed with garden oil. Feed with general garden fertiliser to encourage repeat flowering.
