Chamelaucium floriferum – The Walpole Wax

Best grown in a sunny position in a well drained soil, Chamelaucium floriferum is a drought tolerant evergreen plant from Western Australia.

Attractive white flowers with deep red centres cover the plant in spring. The species itself will reach around 2 metres in height, cultivars such as the popular  ‘Little Lorey’ will reach around half of this.

Used widely for cut flowers, Chamelaucium floriferum makes a good garden plant in an open sunny position. This is aslant that is not well suited to humid climates.

Chamelaucium floriferum care

  • Position – Full sun to part shade.
  • Soil – Humus rich well drained. pH should be slightly acidic.
  • Flowers – White with red centres.
  • Foliage – Mid green.

Pruning

Old spent flower heads should be pruned way after flowering, this helps maintain a bush habit and encourages a better display of flowers the following season.

When pruning, avoid cutting back into old wood.
