Bottlebrush 'Perth Pink'

Posted by Bob_B Sunset 14, Ca. (My Page) on

Greetings from the USA (Santa Rosa, Ca.).
I saw this plant in 1-gal at the nursery and like its delicate, wispy structure. But flowers were absent. I don't want a pale pink flower or dusty rose, colors I have seen in the lighter bottlebrushes. Could not find any decent or reliable images on Google. Anyone know this plant or wish to say anything on its behalf?

Hi Bob B

I have one and I thought it would be a ripper but it has been terribly disappointing. The flowers are not worth putting the thing in for but maybe I just got a bad one. They are a pretty pink but insignificant.
