Agonis flexuosa

$7.00

Agonis flexuosa, better known as peppermint tree, has long weeping branches and soft, narrow leaves that give off a subtle peppermint scent when crushed. White flowers are massed along the branches in spring and summer.

It's tough enough to cope with wind, sandy soils, and salty air, which makes it a favourite in coastal areas, but is adaptable to a range of climates and soils types. Growing up to 8 metres, it's a low-fuss option that brings movement, shade, and a bit of character to the space.
