COROKIA

Sought after for their coastal hardiness, disease free status and easy to grow reputation, New Zealand native Corokia are also excellent for clipping. Whether it’s a hedging plant you’re after, or something to mould into a more fanciful shape, Corokia is your plant! Corokia 'Clover' is one of the best selections for clipping due to its short internodes, which make the plant a lot denser and more compact than other varieties. Left unclipped, 'Clover' forms a lovely textural shrub in its own right. Corokia are quick to establish, thriving in any reasonable, well-drained, soil, preferably in an open, sunny position. They are tolerant of coastal conditions, wind and drought. Evergreen.

This special little New Zealand native, Corokia ' Geenty's Ghost', will add a silvery-green shimmer to your planting schemes. It provides excellent colour and textural contrasts and clips tightly to create a wonderful formal hedge or topiary specimen. If not trimmed too hard, masses of little yellow summer flowers turn into red berries in the autumn, providing a wonderful feast for foraging birds! Corokia are quick to establish, thriving in any reasonable, well-drained, soil, preferably in an open, sunny position. They are tolerant of coastal conditions, wind and drought. Evergreen.
