An amazingly beautiful plant. I'm shocked to see that it is hardy in Zone 5. I've seen it at nurseries but hesitated to grow it here for fear of losing it to our mild Zone 8 winter. Now I need to find a spot in the garden. Let's see...
Thank you for visiting today. I don't mean to make it hard for you to leave a message, but temporarily I am going to enable word verification. Too many spam messages to deal with lately. Thanks for your patience! SG
This is Bottle Brush. If you want a closer look, click on the photo! :-)
I love bottle brush! It takes me right back to Australia...where I grew up with it!
ReplyDeleteHappy Easter Shady!
I wonder if you can use it to brush the bottles ... he he he ...
ReplyDeleteThose really are neat looking plants. I don't think I've ever seen any around here.
ReplyDeleteA lovely shrub...hoping you have a delightful and delicious Easter Sunday! gail
ReplyDeleteLovely photos. What we call bottle brush is a grass and it looks like this--not as colorful.
ReplyDeleteVery unusual looking. Don't think I've seen it before either.
ReplyDeleteHi Shady,
ReplyDeleteHappy Easter to you, Bottlebush is so pretty.

ReplyDeleteHi Kerri! You grew up in Australia? And you're seeing something familiar here? Small world. :-)
ReplyDeleteHi Blossom! :-) It would be the prettiest brush I've ever used. ha
Monica, You're right about that! How DO you add a link in a comment?
Rain gardener, I hadn't ever seen it either - until our AZ visit.
Rosemary, Happy Easter to you also. It's a very pretty flower.
Grace, Please let me know how it does. I'm in Zone 5... Perhaps my friends would bring me a piece? (Maybe root hormone?)
