Brachychiton Bella Pink
Brachychiton Bella Pink is a stunning hybrid tree celebrated for its vibrant pink, bell-shaped flowers that bloom prolifically in late spring and summer. It has a compact, rounded canopy and semi-deciduous habit, shedding some foliage before flowering to create a dramatic display. The leaves are lush and green, offering year-round visual interest. This tree is well-suited to smaller gardens or as a standout feature in larger landscapes.
To grow Bella Pink, choose a sunny location with well-drained soil. It tolerates a range of soils, including sandy and clay, and is drought-tolerant once established, making it perfect for water-wise gardens. Regular watering during the establishment phase and in prolonged dry periods will enhance growth and flowering. It’s a hardy tree, coping well with light frost and urban pollution.
Ideal companion plants include drought-tolerant natives and subtropical species that thrive in similar conditions. Consider pairing it with plants like kangaroo paw (*Anigozanthos*), lomandra, or grevilleas, which enhance the Australian aesthetic. For contrasting foliage, cycads or ornamental grasses work beautifully. Adding groundcovers like *Scaevola* or pigface creates a vibrant underplanting, echoing the pink tones of the flowers. This combination creates a resilient, visually appealing garden space.
