Podocarpus cunninghamii Details

Podocarpus cunninghamii, commonly known as Mountain Totara, this is an elegant NZ native tree grown for its great stature and tidy form. It features small leaves which are held somewhat densely off sturdy branches. As the tree matures the leave size increases.

This evergreen grows best when planted in full sun on a well-drained site. It is tolerant of frost, exposed positions, and coastal environments but will certainly benefit from being protected while it establishes. Podocarpus cunninghamii makes for a lovely specimen in parks and the like and is also well suited to being included in revegetation plantings.
