Why we love this plant!

A resilient, low-maintenance hedge plant that thrives in the varied conditions of South East Queensland. With its compact and upright growth, it is ideal for creating windbreaks and privacy screens, particularly in urban and coastal settings. Its evergreen, glossy foliage withstands the region’s humidity and temperature fluctuations, making it a practical choice for structured garden designs.

Care Considerations

Watering preferences:

Requires regular watering until established.
Once mature, it is drought tolerant but may benefit from deep watering in extended dry periods.

Mulching preferences:

Applying mulch may help retain soil moisture and suppress weeds.

Fertilising preferences:

Fertilisation is not required but a balanced slow-release fertiliser may support healthy growth.

Pruning preferences:

Responds well to pruning—trimming may encourage denser growth.

Good to Know:

Prefers well-drained soil and full sun to part shade in South East Queensland conditions.
