White Correa is a low-maintenance plant so it won't require much watering. During wintertime, you can hold back on watering but as the temperature increases ensure that you're keeping your plant hydrated. When dry, it will wilt which is a good indication of when to water.

For best results, plant in well-drained soil and place your plant in full sun. You can also grow in part shade for reasonable results. This dense shrub typically grows up to 1-1.5m tall and 1-1.5m wide. It's the perfect shrub for creating garden borders or just as a pretty flowering plant.

Only able to tolerate light frost, to begin with, White Correa will need to be well protected in the early growth stages. We recommend protecting it during winter if you live in a cooler climate like Melbourne. It will be frost-tolerant once established.

This lovely species does well in full sun but can also thrive in part sun.
