AK360488 Cultivation Escape. Seedlings collected from a brick wall in the vicinity of a street verge planting of this species in Auckland and on clay under disturbed exotic trees in Golden Bay. Leptospermum morrisonii is now widely grown throughout the warmer parts of New Zealand. As plants readily flower and set viable seed, further naturalisations are considered likely.
