Correa ''Jezabell''

This is a named cultivar (and PBR variety) Correa (C.'Candy Pink' x C.pulchella) with intense lipstick pink flowers.  This is a young plant but it already has a number of flowers coming so I expect it will be quite showy when fully grown and in full bloom. Like most correas, "Jezabell" flowers in autumn and winter so it should be a nectar source for honeyeaters.  Apparently Correa "Jezabell" can grow to about 75cm high and wide but it probably benefits from pruning after flowering.
