Chorizema Cordatum - 14cm

Chorizema cordatum is a colourful Australian native shrub with glossy green foliage and bright pea-shaped flowers in warm orange, pink and red tones. It is especially useful in sheltered native gardens and part-shaded borders, where the flowers can brighten areas that receive protection from intense afternoon sun. The plant has an informal, slightly open habit that works well among ferns, small shrubs and woodland-style planting. It can also be grown in a container where its drainage and exposure are easier to manage.
