Elaeocarpus dentatus (Hinau)

Elaeocarpus dentatus (Hinau) Details

Elaeocarpus dentatus is a NZ native tree that grows to about 20 m tall and 6 m wide. It carries dark green leaves and produces clusters of small, white flowers in spring. The flowers evolve into fleshy, olive shaped fruit in summer. This is a hardy plant which is adapted for coastal conditions. It is therefore ideal for a large coastal garden, revegetation planting, or as a specimen in a large garden. Plant in full sun or partial-shade on a well-drained site for best results.
