Bottle Tree / Brachychiton rupestris / Ø40 cm / Height 2.1 m 'Djalu"

The Brachychiton rupestris, or Queensland Bottle Tree, is an Australian native recognised for its distinctive form and enduring presence. Its sculptural trunk and gentle canopy make it an exceptional indoor feature — strong, intriguing, and full of quiet character. Whether placed in a bright living space or under cover outdoors, it brings a sense of balance and calm wherever it grows.

Delivered in a 400 mm black plastic grow pot. For a finished presentation, the tree can be planted into one of our aged concrete or vintage vessels.

Care

Light – Thrives in bright light and tolerates direct sun. Indoors, place near a north- or east-facing window.
Water – Allow soil to partially dry between watering. Water thoroughly, then let the top half of the soil dry before watering again.
Soil & Repotting – Use a free-draining cactus or succulent mix. Repot every 2–3 years or when root-bound.
Temperature & Feeding – Prefers 15–30 °C. Protect from frost and cold drafts. Feed lightly in spring and summer.
