Griselinia littoralis Details

Griselinia littoralis, commonly known as Kapuka or NZ Broadleaf, is a NZ native tree that is fast growing, evergreen, and often grown as a hedge. The glossy foliage is thick, deep green, and held densely. Clusters of small green flowers are produced in spring and result in berries in summer that attract birds. It typically grows to 8 m tall and 4 m wide but is often contained with trimming. Best performance with Kapuka is achieved when it is grown in full sun or partial shade on a well-drained site. It is tolerant of wind, coastal conditions, and frost though will benefit from some protection while establishing. Griselinia littoralis makes an excellent hedge and is also commonly included in mixed plantings, used to accentuate other foliage or flowering plants, or grown as a specimen. This Broadleaf is a dependable plant which can tolerate tough conditions and still look great in a garden. For a Griselinia littoralis hedge, space the plants 50 cm apart.
