Many years ago, I met a man who has become our best friend in this town where we now live. I have for many years had an interest in the Australian Native Correa, a beautiful shrub that has bell shaped variable flowers. My friend had a web page and I saw some photos he had posted on it which got my interest. I got invited to visit him, so Jan and I made the 2+ hour drive to meet him. In his garden he had an unnamed Correa given to him by a deceased friend and Nurseryman, named Bill Cane.
To cut a long story short, I asked for cuttings of this straggly prostrate Correa with pink and white bell flowers. Over the years, his plant died and I was able to replace it with a cutting grown plant, as I grew many of them over this time. Bill Cane's son and daughter in law live between here and Bairnsdale and I'd like them to have some plants growing in their garden, hence why I'm doing these cuttings.
