Coprosma autumnalis is characterized by its attractive, yellow-green leaves that are mottled with dark-green and purple, with new growth appearing quite purple. Coprosma autumnalis produces orange berries that are beloved by birds, typically between mid-spring and mid-summer. It thrives in a sheltered site with cool soils and regular moisture, making it an ideal option for bush restoration. Additionally, Coprosma autumnalis produces small, white flowers in autumn, adding to its visual appeal. Coprosma autumnalis is evergreen and native to New Zealand and is widespread in both the North and South Island.

This is a general guide. When a plant flowers, fruits and colours up depends on the climate where you live and on the season. If timing matters, please reach out to our team.

Foliage Type

Evergreen plants retain foliage year-round but still shed and replace some leaves gradually as part of their normal growth cycle, rather than losing them all at once.

Deciduous plants shed all their leaves for part of the year (usually in autumn and winter), usually in response to colder temperatures or dry seasons, often producing seasonal colour before leaf drop.

Semi-evergreen plants sit between the two, keeping most of their foliage but losing some or all leaves briefly under cooler or drier conditions before quickly regrowing them.
