Product Information
We do our best to ensure product descriptions, specifications, care information and other details are accurate and up to date. Information is provided as a general guide and may vary between batches, suppliers, individual plants or product revisions.

Stock availability
Website stock levels update live from our inventory system, but occasional discrepancies can occur due to in-store sales, damage or stock adjustments. This is more likely when only 1 or 2 units are showing as available.

Product images
Images are provided as a visual guide and may not show the exact individual item for sale. Plants can naturally vary in size, fullness, colour, shape and stage of growth, and images may show a mature specimen to demonstrate how a younger plant may develop.

Images are either owned by Kambarang Garden Centre, used under an appropriate licence or with permission, or created with AI assistance. AI imagery is used to improve the background of existing photos, and to provide representative images where a suitable real-world photo is difficult or impractical to obtain, particularly for mature plants. Special care is taken to preserve the genuine appearance, colour, form, foliage, flowers and growth habit as accurately as current AI image technology allows.

Plant sizing
Plant sizes refer to the pot size, not the exact size of the plant. For example:

  • 100 mm = 10 cm diameter pot
  • 140 mm = 14 cm diameter pot
  • 5 L = 5 litre pot

Smaller pot sizes generally indicate younger plants, although actual plant size can vary significantly between species, varieties and growth habits.

Description

The Bush Flame Pea (Chorizema varium) is revered for its striking orange and pink pea-like flowers that elegantly drape from the shrub. During Makuru to Djilba (winter to early spring), this small shrub bursts into a vibrant display, making it a captivating focal point for any garden. Furthermore, its stunning blooms are a magnet for local wildlife, perfect for those wishing to attract nature's splendour to their outdoor spaces.

Ideal for both in-ground and potted environments, this plant thrives in well-draining soils. For gardens with sandy soils, a soil conditioner can significantly enhance its vigour. While the Bush Flame Pea loves the sun, it appreciates a bit of afternoon shade during the height of Bunuru (summer). To ensure a profusion of flowers each year, feed with a native plant fertiliser come Djilba (early spring). If the shrub needs shaping or maintenance, it's best to prune after the flowering season concludes.
