Olearia traversiorum is both tough and fast-growing, capable of tolerating light frosts, coastal conditions, wind, and partial shade. It is an excellent choice for use in hedging on dry and exposed sites, although it does not do well in wet areas. During late spring, Olearia traversiorum produces small clusters of white, daisy-like flowers. Olearia traversiorum is evergreen and native to New Zealand in the Chatham Islands.

Foliage

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.
