A dwarf cultivar of uncertain origin, but it may have been collected by the late Sir Victor Davies from the Rotorua or Taupo Volcanic Plateau thermal regions.
It was first listed in the Duncan & Davies Nursery Catalogue about 1940.
Leptospermum ‘Nanum’ was renamed by Trevor Davies about 1972 to Leptospermum ‘Nanum Kotuku’.
