			Information Guide
			Green Envy has been selected for its small compact dense habit and rich green foliage. An update on the genus Callistemon viminalis has recently been combined with the genus Melaleuca. Beautiful bottlebrush red flowers appear in Spring and depending on the season flowering can happen again in Autumn. Green Envy has a variety of uses from low hedging to garden border or it can be used as a rockery planting. Green Envy can be mixed planted with other varieties such as Little Silver, Little Caroline, Mathew Flinders, Little John, Green John, Better John and Wee Johnnie.
		
			Soil PH Conditions
			Soil pH: 6.4 to 7.5 - Soil preparation: Soil can range from quite acid to alkaline in pH levels, it is important to have good soil preparation to gain the best results when planting natives. This improves the water-holding capacity of the soil and for young plants, once established, will have lower water requirements.
		
			Water Recommendations
			Grows well in both shade and full sun. It is adaptable to most well drained soils and is a versatile plant. Once this plant is established it will tolerate dry and light frost conditions, but over long periods of dry will require watering.
		
			Fertiliser Recommendations
			This plant requires little maintenance and it is best to initially feed with a slow release low phosphorus fertiliser to help first establish the plant. It is beneficial to follow up with the occasional reapplication of fertiliser and apply as required. Mulching around the base of the plant will help retain moisture and suppress weeds.
