Correa White Coastal Pink

Correa alba ‘Coastal Pink Correa’ is a compact, hardy Australian native shrub admired for its soft, silvery foliage and delicate pink bell-shaped flowers. A pink-flowering form of the traditional Correa alba, this variety brings a gentle splash of colour while maintaining excellent resilience in coastal and windy environments.

Typically growing to around 1 to 1.5 metres high and wide, ‘Coastal Pink’ forms a rounded, bushy shape with dense, felted grey-green leaves. From autumn through spring, it produces pale to mid-pink blooms that attract birds and pollinators. The subtle flowers are beautifully offset against the plant’s silvery backdrop, making it ideal for soft, naturalistic designs.

This correa thrives in full sun to part shade and tolerates a range of soils, including sandy or coastal conditions. It’s drought-tolerant once established, withstands salt-laden winds, and requires minimal maintenance—an occasional prune helps keep it neat and encourages denser flowering.

Coastal Pink Correa is an excellent choice for coastal gardens, native plantings, mixed borders, or informal hedging, especially where a soft pink tone is desired in a tough and reliable plant.
