Griselinia Broadway Mint

5 from 3 customers

Griselinia Broadway Mint, commonly known as Kapuka or NZ Broadleaf, is a fast growing, small, NZ native tree with dense branching and lush foliage which makes it perfect for hedging. The foliage comprises large and glossy, wavy leaves which gives it a fresh and vibrant appeal. Left untrimmed, it will grow to 5 m tall and 3 m wide, but it is often clipped to sizes much less than this. This plant makes a beautiful hedge and a fantastic screen, but also makes for a lovely specimen, or as a colourful backdrop for smaller plants. It is the gorgeous foliage and versatility this plant offers that makes it a popular choice.
