White Correa

Correa alba

A home-grown star, the white correa is a wonderfully useful and versatile Australian native shrub that can take a beating and still look perfect. With dainty white starry flowers neatly set on dusty grey-green leaves, it thrives in coastal, exposed conditions including salt-laden winds. White correa is one of the few natives that works well with exotics, with a compact habit that lends itself to clipping for a terrific, low maintenance informal hedge or topiary.

White Correa

An iconic feature in the planting palette of renowned landscape designer Fiona Brockhoff, correa alba responds beautifully to shaping and styling as a topiary feature or clipped hedge. Its tough, low maintenance characteristics make it a must have in any coastal, native or mixed planting as an evergreen structural component. Growing on sand dunes and cliffs in its native environment, no position is too challenging for this robust, easy-care shrub. Its dense habit provides habitat for small birds and wildlife and the starry white flowers produced in the cooler months from autumn to spring are a magnet for birds and bees. Every garden should have one!
How to grow

Full sun, part shade, preferring dappled sunlight. Needs a free draining soil, drought tolerant once established. Suitable for coastal, exposed and windy conditions. Trim regularly to keep compact. Ideal as a clipped hedged or topiary.
