New Zealand Tea Tree (Leptospermum scoparium), also known as Manuka, is a hardy, evergreen shrub native to New Zealand and parts of Australia. Renowned for its aromatic, narrow leaves and stunning white to pinkish flowers, this plant is both a striking ornamental and a highly valued species in traditional medicine. Manuka is most famous for its antibacterial properties, especially from the honey derived from its flowers, which is considered a natural remedy for various health issues. The shrub thrives in well-drained, sandy or rocky soils, and it can tolerate coastal conditions, making it a popular choice for landscapes in coastal regions. Additionally, the plant has gained popularity in the wellness industry, with its essential oils used in skincare products due to their soothing and antiseptic qualities. Whether used for its medicinal benefits or for its visual appeal, the New Zealand Tea Tree offers both beauty and practicality in garden settings.
