Correa Baeuerlenii Chef's Cap is a densely-foliaged native shrub with sweetly aromatic leaves. The rounded shrub produces tubular greenish-yellow flowers in autumn and winter attracting nectar-loving birds and bees to the garden. Ideal for group plantings under trees, as a low-growing windbreak and informal hedge or screen. The correa will benefit from feeding twice a year with plant food or liquid fertiliser. Prune after flowering to maintain compact growth.
