Little Evodia Blush (Melicope rubra 'Blush')

Want butterflies? Plant an evodia. Little Evodia is a small Australian rainforest tree from tropical Queensland famous for clusters of fluffy pink blossom that appear straight from the branches, and for being a host plant of the spectacular Ulysses butterfly. Blush brings that soft pink display to gardens as a compact, glossy-leaved feature tree.

🌱 Why Gardeners Love Little Evodia Blush

✔ Pink Powder-Puff Blossom - fluffy blooms bursting along the branches in the warmer months.

✔ Butterfly Host - a food plant for the famous blue Ulysses butterfly in its native range.

✔ Compact Rainforest Tree - a small tree suited to suburban gardens.

✔ Lush Glossy Foliage - tropical-look leaves year round.

✔ Bird and Insect Friendly - flowers hum with nectar feeders.

🏡 How to Use Little Evodia Blush in Your Garden

✅ Feature Tree - a standout specimen for tropical and subtropical gardens.

✅ Butterfly Garden - the essential centrepiece of a habitat planting.

✅ Rainforest-Style Beds - combine with palms, gingers and ferns.

✅ Large Pots - young trees perform well in generous containers on warm patios.

Easy Planting & Care Guide

  • Position: Full sun to part shade in a warm, frost-free position; best in tropical and subtropical climates.
  • Spacing: Allow 3-4m of space to develop its canopy.
  • Best Planting Time: Spring to early autumn in warm regions.
  • Watering & Care: Keep moist and mulched, especially in dry spells. Feed with a complete fertiliser in spring and prune lightly after flowering to shape.

❔ FAQs About Little Evodia Blush

Will it really attract Ulysses butterflies?
In tropical Queensland, yes - it is one of their key host plants. Outside their range it still attracts plenty of other butterflies, bees and birds.

Can I grow it in a cooler climate?
It needs warmth and dislikes frost. In marginal areas try a sheltered, sunny courtyard or a large pot that can be protected in winter.

What sizes are available?
From tubes and 140mm packs for group planting up to advanced 25L, 45L and 100L trees for instant impact.
