Learn About Your New Leptospermum laevigatum
Leptospermum laevigatum, commonly known as the Coastal Tea Tree or Coastal Manuka, is a versatile and hardy Australian native shrub renowned for its resilience, attractive foliage, and delicate white to pink flowers. This evergreen shrub belongs to the Myrtaceae family and is valued for its adaptability to coastal conditions and its ornamental qualities.
Common Name: Coastal Tea Tree or Coastal Manuka
Mature Height (meters): Typically grows to a height of 2-4 meters
Mature Width (meters): Spreads to approximately 2-4 meters
Spacing: Plant at least 2-4 meters apart to accommodate its spreading growth habit.
Foliage: The Coastal Tea Tree is characterized by its small, narrow, aromatic leaves that are dark green above and lighter beneath, adding textural interest to the landscape.
Flowering Period: The shrub produces delicate, five-petaled white to pink flowers with prominent stamens, which appear in profusion during spring and early summer. These flowers attract pollinators and add charm to the garden.
Form/Habit: Leptospermum laevigatum has a naturally bushy and spreading growth habit, making it an excellent choice for naturalistic plantings and erosion control.
Uses: Ideal for coastal gardens, erosion control, and as a windbreak. It can also be used in mixed shrub borders and as a feature plant for its attractive foliage and flowers.

Maintenance: Low maintenance; minimal pruning is required to maintain its natural form and remove dead or wayward branches.
