Geraldton Wax

The Geraldton Wax, scientifically known as Chamelaucium uncinatum, is a stunning woody shrub native to the western regions of Australia. Renowned for its abundant and long-lasting waxy flowers that bloom from late winter through to spring, it has become a favorite in ornamental gardens and the commercial cut-flower industry. The plant features needle-like, aromatic leaves that release a pleasant citrus scent when crushed. It is exceptionally resilient in Mediterranean climates, thriving in poor soils and dry conditions once established. Its ability to withstand drought makes it a quintessential choice for water-wise landscaping and coastal gardens.
