Mirbelia corallina is a slender, sprawling sub-shrub from the far west of Western Australia, grown for its coral to apricot-pink and yellow pea flowers. Give it full sun and very well-drained soil, as it is native to sandplains and kwongan heath.
Mirbelia corallina is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae and is endemic to the far west of Western Australia. It is a slender, sprawling sub-shrub with a few narrowly elliptic to narrowly egg-shaped leaves and pink and yellow flowers arranged in racemes near the ends of the branchlets.
This mirbelia grows on sandplains and winter-wet places in kwongan and shrubland near Kalbarri and mostly in Kalbarri National Park, in the Geraldton Sandplains bioregion of western, Western Australia.
