Exotic, elegant, and wonderfully dramatic, Clianthus puniceus ‘Pink Flamingo’ is a showy flowering shrub with dangling clusters of pink, parrot-beak-shaped blooms. This striking New Zealand native pea-family plant quickly develops into a dense, branching shrub, bringing tropical-looking color and architectural interest to mild-climate gardens.

Also known as Pink Flamingo Parrot’s Beak or kaka beak, this rare shrub is a standout for sheltered borders, courtyard gardens, large containers, and collector plantings. The unusual flowers hang in graceful clusters and are especially beautiful against the soft green foliage, making the plant a true conversation piece. Use it as a focal shrub where its sculptural bloom form can be fully appreciated.

Plant Clianthus puniceus ‘Pink Flamingo’ in full sun to part shade with well-drained soil and regular water during active growth. Protect from hard frost and harsh exposure in colder areas. Prune lightly to shape after bloom. Explore more unusual flowering shrubs in our Clianthus collection.
