About

Correa baeuerlenii, commonly known as chef's-hat correa, or chef's cap correa, is a species of dense, rounded shrub that is endemic to the south-east of New South Wales, Australia. It has egg-shaped leaves and pendulous, greenish yellow flowers usually arranged singly on short side branches.

How to grow it

Correa baeuerlenii can be used as a container plant or for screening. The flowers attract birds and flowering branches can be used indoors for floral arrangements. The species prefers moist soils with good drainage. It requires some shade, making it suitable for planting under trees.

Where it grows

Chef's-hat correa occurs in forested areas from Bega northwards to the Clyde River district, with populations occurring at Biamanga, Deua and Mimosa Rocks National Parks.
