Leptospermum venustum
Gaudium venustum (Leptospermum venustum) is a spreading tea-tree shrub native to a small area of Queensland, Australia, grown for its deep pink flowers. It is a shrub, not a succulent, despite the article tag, and is best suited to a sunny, well-drained spot.
Gaudium venustum is a species of spreading shrub that is endemic to Queensland. It has thin, rough, scaly bark, broadly elliptical leaves, deep pink flowers borne singly on side shoots and fruit that is fleshy and succulent at first.
This tea-tree grows on hills and slopes, sometimes near small streams in woodland and is restricted to a small area west of Eidsvold.
