Metrosideros excelsa thrives in coastal situations and can tolerate poor soils, wet, and drought conditions. It forms a large, broad-headed tree with thick, green leaves that have silver-grey undersides. Produces a profusion of glowing, crimson-red flowers from early to mid-summer, which attract nectar-seeking birds. It can be pruned to form hedges and screens or left as a specimen. Is evergreen and native to New Zealand. Learn more.
