Correa Reflexa Tall Red

Correa reflexa tall red is a very pretty native shrub with long lasting highly ornamental red and/or yellow tubular flowers. Flowers autumn to spring. Grows well in sun to filtered shade, underneath taller trees/shrubs. Requires some moisture to establish and then will tolerate much drier conditions.  

To grow Correa reflexa, start by selecting a sunny or partly shaded location with well-drained soil. Dig a hole twice the size of the root ball and place the plant in it. Backfill with soil and water thoroughly. Correa reflexa typically grows to a height of 1-2mt and spreads about 1-1.5mt. Its attractive bell-shaped flowers bloom in various colors, including pink, red, or green. Prune lightly after flowering to maintain a compact shape. Regular watering, especially during dry periods, will help establish and sustain healthy growth.
