If you are searching for an extraordinary drought-tolerant addition to your garden, consider Agonis flexuosa ‘After Dark.’ The deep burgundy, lanceolate leaves provide a dynamite counterpoint against a palette of bright greens and—bonus— they smell like peppermint when crushed! Growing 15-20’ tall and 10-15’ wide with a semi-weeping to rounded shape, the evergreen ‘After Dark’ is suitable for smaller spaces. Over time, the tree can grow an open canopy, but it can be pruned as a screen for fuller foliage. A selection of Peppermint Tree native to Western Australia, this Agonis is hardy to 25-30° F, thrives in full sun, and is tolerant of coastal conditions. Provide good irrigation during establishment.
