What are the landscaping uses for Pittosporum Little Anita in NZ?

Pittosporum Little Anita is a popular choice in landscaping projects in NZ. It makes a beautiful low hedge and is also clipped into topiary balls. This shrub is well suited to modern and formal gardens and is widely used around pools and other outdoor living spaces.

Pittosporum Little Anita plant spacing

The Pittosporum Little Anita hedge spacing is generally 30 cm between the plants. If you want the hedge to fill in faster, you can shorten the spacing to 25 cm. However, going wider than 40 cm will have two effects. The first is that the gap between the plants at the base will be harder to fill in and this can cause frustration. The second is that the plants will tend to grow wider rather than upward. At a closer spacing the plants compete for light, and in doing so, they push each other upwards. Therefore, The Plant Company recommends a 30 cm spacing to achieve an amazing hedge that is 50 cm tall. If, on the other hand, you want discrete plants, the minimum spacing is 90 cm between the plants.

What height does the Little Anita Pittosporum shrub grow to?

The Little Anita Pittosporum will grow to a height of about 60 cm. In warmer climates it will reach this height much quicker than in cooler and more exposed sites. Watering and maintaining fertility levels will also influence the time this shrub takes to reach this height.
