Correa pulchella 'Autumn Blaze'

A low growing Correa with glossy, mid green foliage and decorative brilliant orange flowers in autumn to early spring. Naturally occurs on Kangaroo Island, South Australia.

POSITION: Grows in full sun and part shaded areas, in most well drained soil types - including coastal.

CARE: A hardy plant that requires an annual prune to maintain bushy habit. Will benefit from occasional feed with a slow release, low phosphorus fertilizer. Mulching around the base will help to conserve moisture.

USES: Autumn Blaze makes a good rockery plant or ground cover plant with a wide spread and showy flower display.
