It has been the very best year for bottlebrush I've known. They are
splendid and very attractive~ our peculiar summer seems to have been just
right for them..
Not the easiest to take but June/July is correct. Use 3to4" heeled,
semi-ripe, laterals. Use a 50% sand/peat mix and bottom heat of 20C. Will
take a few weeks to root.
Best Wishes Brian.

Oh dear, my bottlebrush is been rubbish this year, I very nearly gave
it its marching orders :-)
