Cylindrical brush: External characteristics and care
Rarely, the cylinder cleaner grows as a tree. In most cases it is found as a shrub. But what are the characteristics of this plant originating from the subtropical zones of Australia and what care does it need in this country?
Growth height and growth width
The cylinder cleaner reaches as shrub an average height between 150 and 200 cm. In exceptional cases, it can grow up to 300 cm high. In width it occupies a space between 120 and 150 cm (rarely up to 200 cm). As a result, it is a medium-sized shrub.
Due to the considerable dimensions and height and width, it is necessary to provide this plant with a sufficiently large bucket. The planter should have a minimum capacity of 30 liters. Fill in conventional potting soil, as this meets the requirements of the cylinder brushwood perfectly. Every 4 years the bush should be repotted.

This subtropical shrub is not hardy. He has to be wintered in our latitudes. This is done in a cool 10 to 15 ° C place, which allows enough light to penetrate to the plant. For example, winter gardens are ideal.
Do not forget to water the Cylindric Shrub in winter. A fertilizer should not be given. From mid-May, the Cinderwort shrub can take off outside on the balcony or terrace again. Slowly accustom him to the sunlight!
