This tall shrub produces copious pink or white flowers. It is believed that native animals seek respite from ticks and other parasitic insects by laying beneath the Kunzea shrubs. Kunzea essential oil may support the respiratory system during the colder months, and may soothe soreness in muscle and joints. A gentle essential oil, Kunzea may assist in calming irritated skin. It is also known as an effective insect repellent.
Also known as: White cloud, Tick bush
