Kennedia coccinea, commonly known as Coral Vine, is an evergreen perennial vine native to a variety of habitats including open woodlands, coastal dunes, and scrublands in Western Australia. It can grow to a height of 7-10 feet (2.1-3 meters) and a width of 2-3 feet (0.6-0.9 meters), with a twining habit that allows it to climb structures and cover ground effectively. The plant is known for its vibrant and showy pea-like flowers that appear in a range of colors including yellow, orange, pink, and red, mainly during the spring season.

Coral Vine is valued for its drought resistance and ability to thrive in sandy or lighter soils, making it suitable for xeriscaping and coastal gardens. It is also frost tolerant to a degree. In cultivation, it is often used for covering trellises, fences, and as a ground cover in areas with full sun to partial shade. While it prefers some shade in hotter climates, it is adaptable and can tolerate low water conditions once established. Propagation is typically done by scarified seed or cuttings of semi-mature growth. Gardeners should be aware that in some regions, it can become invasive, so monitoring and control may be necessary to prevent unwanted spread.CC BY-SA 4.0
