@londongardener I love this tree & did a search for it after seeing your pic. There is a lot of different flower colours all lovely but it appears that it's not entirely hardy. As I live in NE Scotland it would be a risk. Do you grow your one outside in London?

@angipangi mine is a Leptospermum scoparium 'Red Damask' I don't protect it during Winter but it's growing against a fence and we hardly get frosts below -5 here

@londongardener Thanks I would really like to get this tree so will maybe have to take a calculated risk & just wrap it up in fleece overwinter. We'll see. 🤔
