About

Leptospermum deuense is a species of shrub that is endemic to New South Wales. It is a leafy, densely branched shrub with rough bark on the older stems, elliptical leaves with a glossy upper surface, white flowers arranged singly or in pairs and woody fruit.

How to grow it

The species has only been recently introduced to cultivation, but has proved itself readily adaptable to a range of soil conditions and able to withstand frosts to −7 °C (19 °F). It can be propagated by seed or cuttings.

Where it grows

Leptospermum deuense is only known from a small area on mountains in the Deua National Park near Moruya where it grows in scrub or exposed woodland on a rhyolite ridge.
