About

Hakea clavata, commonly known as coastal hakea is a shrub that is endemic to an area along the south coast of Western Australia. It has thick leaves, pink and grey flowers and grows on rocky outcrops.

Where it grows

Coastal hakea is found on the mainland and on some of the islands between Israelite Bay and Esperance and a single population is known at Hopetoun to the west. The range covers southeastern areas of the Southwest Botanical Province. The species grows in rocky sandy clay soils among granite outcrops and withstands salt laden winds.
