The Next Generation
Manuka (Leptospermum scoparium) is a shrub or small tree with pale brown, papery bark. The leaves are about 4-12 mm long and 1-4 mm wide, green-brown, tough and quite sharply pointed.
The flowers are borne singly along the branches and they are 6-12 mm in diameter. The capsules are broad and they remain on the tree for several years (the seeds take at least a year to mature). This was taken at the Australian National Botanical Garden in Canberra, Australia.
Thanks to Patrick for the indentification of this plant.
