Correa alba Details

Correa alba is an Australian native shrub that features quaint foliage and pretty flowers. The small leaves are borne red-brown and quickly age to become silver-green. They are held densely and serve as a pleasant backdrop to the white flowers through autumn and winter. It typically grows to 1.5 m tall and the same wide, and responds well to trimming which makes the plant denser. Best growth is achieved when positioned in full sun or partial shade on a well-drained site, and it will tolerate dry periods, moderate frost, and coastal environments. Correa alba is commonly used as a low hedge, included in mixed plantings, planted around outdoor living areas, or maintained in a container.
