Leptospermum 'Cupcake' is an evergreen shrub with dense, upright growth and small dark green leaves that often take on reddish tones, producing masses of double pink flowers in spring and early summer that are attractive to bees and other pollinators, and it is commonly used in hedging, screening, coastal plantings, and native-style gardens due to its hardiness, tolerance of poor soils, and low-maintenance nature.
