A tough, evergreen coastal native with glossy foliage, neat branching and excellent tolerance to salt, wind and heat. White spring–summer flowers are followed by decorative fruit that attracts birds. Ideal for coastal hedging, soft screening, street/driveway lines and feature planting in Brisbane.

Low maintenance, clips cleanly, and drought-tolerant once established.

Origin: Eastern Australia (QLD/NSW native)
Attracts: Birds & pollinators

Plant Guide

What to use me for: I’m a reliable soft/statement screening and coastal hedge option, great as a street or driveway tree, and a tidy feature near entries or along boundaries.

I grow to: Typically 6–8 m tall and 3–4 m wide in the ground; can be maintained 3–5 m with pruning. More compact in large pots.

Features: Dense, glossy evergreen canopy; white flowers in warm months; decorative fruit; high wind and salt tolerance; clips to a tidy line.

Plant Care

Where to place me: Full sun to part sun. Handles exposed coastal and windy positions once established.

How far to space me: Tight hedge/screen: 1.0–1.5 m centres. Softer screen: 1.8–2.5 m. Specimen/avenue: 3–4 m between trees.

Soil Conditions: Prefers free-draining soils; excels in sandy/coastal sites. Avoid long-term waterlogging. Mulch well (keep mulch off the trunk).

Extra-Care: Water regularly to establish; then low–moderate water needs. Light formative prune when young; clip 2–3×/year to hold a narrow screen. Feed in spring with a slow-release fertiliser for natives/evergreens.
