Pink Heath

Description:

Growing as wiry stems up to 1.5 metres high with simple spiky leaves and runs of deep pink tubular bell flowers.

Habitat:

Mostly in the native bushlands of south-eastern Australia under light, dry eucalypts.

Notes:

This is also called common heath and is available commercially. It is also the floral emblem of Victoria, Australia. Sometimes it is found in a much paler form - almost white. #1100 http://bie.ala.org.au/species/Epacris+im...
