Syzygium australe Orange Twist

Common Name: Orange Twist Scrub Cherry

Availabilty: In Stock

The Orange Twist is a small, evergreen tree or tall shrub that grows to 4 metres. It's density of foliage and moderate height renders it as an effective windbreak or hedge. Young foliage is tinted orange, maturing to a happy and bright green, making this a colourful addition to your landscape.

White flowers appear during the Summer months that are attractive to birdlife. Low maintenance but great results is the key here, the Orange Twist requires very little work, if any. Then to top it off, syzygiums are hardy to most environments... what's not to love?

Frost & wind tolerant.  Most well drained soils. Full sun.

This is a type of Australian "Bush Food" or "Bush Tucker".  Syzygium australe varieties produce reddish coloured berries that can be eaten or cooked, and is typically made into jam or jelly.
