Coprosma virescens is a divaricating grower with tiny green leaves, and its branch stems can vary in color from yellow-orange to red-orange. It is known for its toughness and ability to tolerate poor soil and dry conditions, making it an ideal choice for gardeners who want a low-maintenance plant that can thrive in challenging environments. The narrow-growing habit of Coprosma virescens makes it a great option for creating a hedge or screen without the need for regular trimming. Additionally, its hardiness and adaptability make it a practical and versatile addition to any landscape. Coprosma virescens is evergreen and native to New Zealand.

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.
