Best Growing Environment: The MacArthur™ Bottlebrush thrives as a compact, evergreen shrub in warm, sunny landscapes with good air circulation, making it ideal for Mediterranean-style gardens, coastal areas, hedges, mass plantings, rock gardens, or container accents on patios and terraces. It performs best in well-drained soils of most types (including sandy or clay-loam mixes) and tolerates urban pollution, salt spray, and drought once established, while responding beautifully to chunky mulch that retains moisture and suppresses weeds. This cultivar, a controlled cross between the vigorous ‘Captain Cook’ and compact ‘Little John’ varieties, suits low-maintenance yards where it can attract bees, hummingbirds, and birds with its profuse red blooms without becoming invasive or overly large.

Botanical Name: Callistemon viminalis ‘LC01’ (also known as MacArthur™ with plant patent PP25,011 or PBR protection). It belongs to the Myrtaceae family and is a selected cultivar of the weeping bottlebrush species native to Australia.

-
Common Names: MacArthur™ Bottlebrush, Macarthur Bottlebrush, MacArthur Callistemon, or simply MacArthur red bottlebrush. It is often marketed for its improved flowering and tidy form compared to older bottlebrush varieties.

-
Average Height and Diameter: At maturity, this semi-dwarf shrub reaches about 5–7 feet tall (commonly 6 feet) with a spread or diameter of 4–6 feet (typically 5 feet), forming a dense, rounded, mounded habit that stays neat without excessive pruning. Its low canopy makes it suitable under power lines or in smaller spaces.
plants.franzwitte.com
-
Growth Rate: It grows at a medium rate overall with vigorous establishment once planted, quickly developing its bushy, tidy form and reaching mature size in several years under ideal conditions. Expect a lifespan of around 30 years with proper care; the compact genetics from its ‘Little John’ parent prevent it from becoming leggy while inheriting faster flowering vigor from ‘Captain Cook’.

-
Sun Requirements: Full sun to partial shade is ideal, with full sun producing the most intense and prolonged red bottlebrush blooms (mid-spring through late fall). It tolerates part shade but may flower slightly less prolifically in heavier shade.

-
Cold Hardiness: This cultivar tolerates light frost and moderate freezes better than many older bottlebrushes, making it reliably hardy in USDA Zone 8a and warmer (generally performing well in Zones 8–10 or 11 in mild-winter regions). Protect young plants from extreme cold snaps in marginal zones, but established specimens handle typical winter lows without issue.

-
Water Requirements: Provide regular watering (as needed) for the first 8–13 weeks after planting to help roots establish deeply. Once established, it is quite drought-tolerant and adapts to average-to-moist conditions without drying out completely during peak heat; avoid overwatering in heavy soils to prevent root rot. It performs well with supplemental irrigation only during prolonged dry spells.

Detailed Fertilizing Guide: MacArthur™ Bottlebrush is low-maintenance and requires minimal fertilizing once established—often none at all in fertile soils. If growth seems slow or foliage pales, apply a slow-release, balanced fertilizer (or a native/Australian-plant formula low in phosphorus to avoid toxicity common in Myrtaceae) in early spring. Use a granular product at the manufacturer’s recommended rate around the drip line, water it in thoroughly, and avoid high-nitrogen formulas that could promote leafy growth at the expense of flowers. Reapply only if needed in subsequent springs; over-fertilizing can reduce bloom quality and invite pests.

Planting Guide: Choose a site with full sun to part shade and prepare the soil by incorporating chunky mulch after planting to conserve moisture and moderate temperatures. Dig a hole as deep as the root ball and twice as wide, gently loosen circling roots, and position the plant at the same depth it was in the nursery pot. Backfill with native or amended soil (no heavy amendments needed due to its soil tolerance), water deeply to settle, and apply 2–3 inches of mulch keeping it away from the trunk. For hedges or screens, space plants 1–1.5 per linear meter (or 1–2 per square meter for massing). It establishes quickly and works equally well in-ground or in large containers (use a quality potting mix and water more frequently in pots). Prune lightly after flowering (1–3 times per year) to maintain shape or encourage density.

-
USDA Zone: Hardy in USDA Zone 8a (and warmer zones up to 10–11), where it remains evergreen and flowers reliably through the growing season. In Zone 8a, provide young plants with winter protection the first 1–2 years if extreme cold is forecast.

Comfy soft pillow covers
Color: 02 - White, Size: Queen (20" X 30"), Color: 02 - White, Size: Queen (20" X 30")
Absolutely love these pillow cases! I bought 2 sets. After I received them & washed & dried them they did remain wrinkly. I just went ahead and put them on my pillows & the wrinkles went away. I continue to love the feel, coolness & comfort. Will definitely buy more.

These Bamboo Pillowcases Made Me Realize I Sleep Hot
Color: 07 - Cream, Size: Queen (20" X 30"), Color: 07 - Cream, Size: Queen (20" X 30")
I bought these mostly because I kept hearing people talk about bamboo pillowcases and honestly thought it sounded a little overhyped, but I totally get it now. The first thing I noticed was how cool they felt compared to regular cotton. I tend to get warm when I sleep and flip my pillow a million times during the night looking for the cold side, and these actually stay noticeably cooler longer.
They also feel really soft without having that weird slippery texture some silky pillowcases have. My skin has been less irritated lately and my hair definitely looks less frizzy in the mornings. I have thick hair that tangles easily overnight, and these have helped more than I expected.
Another thing I appreciate is that they’ve washed well so far. I was worried they’d pill or lose softness after a wash cycle, but they still feel smooth and nice. They also just make the bed feel cleaner and more comfortable overall. One of those small upgrades that ends up making a bigger difference than you’d think.

Sheets are good. Greens don't match
Color: 08 - Sage Green, Size: King (20" X 36"), Color: 08 - Sage Green, Size: King (20" X 36")
I purchased the sage green sheets to go along with another Bedsure comforter, then purchased 2 more pillow cases (because i
I like a lot of pillows) and the greens don't exactly match. This doesn't REALLY bother me as I feel like its fine with a little "texture."
Sheets feel nice and light and I love the look of it in my room.
