Leptospermum

G'day All

Can anyone give me information re Leptospermum grandiflorum, which has
been growing here for several years without flowering. This year it is
covered with typical Leptospermum flowers, whitish with pink calyx
lobes. I am not sure that it is true to name, as I understand there is
also a L. grandifolium, and the two epithets get confused regularly.
This one is probably correct, but we would be glad for any tips re
natural habitat, and culture. It is not a dramatic plant, but soundly
reliable in every sort of weather that can be thrown at it and is
growing in full sun. I realise that it is an Aussie as opposed to Kiwi,
but that is almost as muc information as saying it grows in the world
Can it be pruned safely to make it more compact and dense in habit? 
Grateful for any help.
