Common Name: Chefs Cap

Correa baeuerlenii, commonly known as "Chef's Cap" or "Australian Fuchsia," is an evergreen shrub native to Australia. This attractive plant is known for its unique tubular flowers, which have earned it the nickname "Chef's Cap" due to the resemblance of its blossoms to a chef's hat. This shrub has a compact and bushy growth habit, making it suitable for gardens, borders, and containers. It prefers a position in full sun to partial shade. In areas with hot climates, some afternoon shade can be beneficial.
