Leptospermum obovatum Starry Night is a graceful weeping shrub with soft dark purple-almost black foliage and purple-pink young stems. The large white cup-shaped flowers attract butterflies and small birds that love to forage amongst the blossoms. Plant Starry Night as an eye-catching specimen in a paved courtyard, an informal screen against a wall or fence line, or as a medium-sized hedge. The dark foliage adds interest all year round and acts as a great contrast plant in gardens and landscaping.
