Close'Pink Flamingo' Australian Fuchsia is one of those surprising shrubs that bloom from winter into spring when similar looking evergreens are quietly waiting for warmer weather to put out flowers. Its dense, dark green leaves are the perfect backdrop for the salmon pink, tubular shaped flowers, and its compact form works well in borders, large containers or mass plantings. Contrary to its common name, Australian Fuchsia, this correa thrives in the sun or part shade, and is drought tolerant once established. Hardy to about 20 degrees, 'Pink Flamingo' may fair better in a container planter that can be moved under the eaves in extremely cold weather.
