What are the landscaping uses for Pittosporum Tandara Gold in NZ?

Pittosporum Tandara Gold is a popular choice in landscaping projects in NZ.

It is the gorgeous foliage and versatility of this plant that makes it a popular choice in landscaping. Few other trees can grow on marginal soils and climates and still look amazing.

Pittosporum Tandara Gold hedge spacing

The Pittosporum Tandara Gold hedge spacing is generally 50 cm between the plants. If you want the hedge to fill in faster, you can shorten the spacing to 40 cm. However, going wider than 50 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 40-50 cm spacing to achieve an amazing hedge.

What height does the Pittosporum Tandara Gold tree grow to?

Pittosporum Tandara Gold trees will grow to a height of about 3 metres. 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 to reach this height.

What is the Pittosporum Tandara Gold growth rate?

The growth rate of Pittosporum Tandara Gold depends on where it is positioned and how well it is cared for. In a warm climate with good growing conditions, it will grow to 3 m tall and 2 m wide in about 8-10 years. Where anything impedes the growth such as drought, wind exposure, cold climates it will grow at a slower rate. While this tree can grow to 3 m tall, it is often clipped to smaller sizes and often into a hedge. Overall, the growth rate is considered medium relative to other NZ native hedging plants.
