Transform your space with instant privacy and year-round beauty.

A graceful, evergreen screening tree with naturally pendulous foliage and a neat, upright frame. Ideal for fast, elegant privacy with soft movement. Small white flowers in late spring–summer are followed by decorative berries and fresh bronze new growth.

Easy, fast and tidy: quick to establish, clips cleanly to a narrow screen or formal hedge, and suits Brisbane’s climate.

Please note: As living plants, each tree is unique in size and maturity based on how long it's been established in its pot, our 45L trees vary in establishment: 45L Available: 

Batch A: $245 - Well-established specimens with extended growing time in pot, offering fuller growth and immediate impact.

Batch B: $195 - Fresh stock. Recently potted, healthy trees at great value, ready to grow and perfect for the patient gardener. 

Both are quality trees - the price reflects time spent establishing in the nursery

Origin: Australian native
Attracts: Birds and pollinators

Plant Guide

What to use me for: I’m a premium statement screening and soft privacy tree. My slender, upright habit is perfect along boundaries, driveways and poolside. I also works as a street-appeal feature or in large statement pots.

I grow to: Typically 6–8m tall and 3–5m wide if unpruned; I keep a narrow, dense wall with regular trimming and can be maintained 3–5m high.

Features: Weeping, glossy foliage with bronze flushes; small white flowers in warm months; takes clipping well; elegant vertical structure.

Plant Care

Where to place me: Full sun to part shade. Allow airflow; protect from severe, drying winds when young.

How far to space me: For a tight hedge/screen: 1.0–1.5m centres. For a softer screen: 1.8–2.5m.

Soil conditions: Prefers moist, free-draining soil with organic matter. Tolerates brief wet after rain but avoid long-term waterlogging. Mulch to keep roots cool.

Extra-Care: Water regularly to establish; then moderate water needs (deep soaks in extended heat). Prune 2-3 times per year to keep a narrow, formal line. Feed in spring with a slow-release fertiliser for natives/evergreens.
