Correa reflexa (Pink form)
Correa reflexa form (pink and green flowers)
This plant is summer flowering which is a nice change as there are not too many Australian Native plants which flower at this time of the year. Most are finishing around Christmas time. It is under a metre tall and wide and is exposed to full sun light most of the day. It is in a location under mallee trees and where there is some limestone rubble in the soil.
Please crush the leaves of the above correa- I think it is a glabra not a reflexa- glabra has a rich fruity smell in the leaves. There is one called Summer Bells which matches the above photo-it is a glabra var turnbulli form.
