Leucopogon ericoides
Also called Bearded Heath, Pink Beard Heath
Styphelia ericoides is a slender, native Australian shrub in the heath family, grown for its small white to pink tubular flowers. It does best in open, sunny spots with excellent drainage, as it comes from heath, forest and woodland edges.
Styphelia ericoides, commonly known as the pink beard-heath, is a species of flowering plant in the heath family Ericaceae and is endemic to south-eastern Australia. It is a slender shrub with oblong leaves, and white to pinkish, tube-shaped flowers.
Pink beard-heath is widespread and common in south-east Queensland, the coast, tablelands and slopes of eastern New South Wales, southern Victoria, the far south-east of South Australia and Tasmania, where it grows in heath, forest and woodland.
